About
It’s sequel time, as we present “Least Haunted 2: Electric Loup-Garou”. It’s another glimpse into all things weird and spooky with three judgemental pricks. We have a strange tale from a listener (big thanks Joe!); to shoehorn in our incredible episode title, Adam recounts his childhood fascination and dread of the Southend Werewolf; and Lee explains why he could believe Richard Herring is breaking into his house to steal wineglasses. We enjoy these chats so much we’ll probably do some more, so please send in your own real-life unusual occurrences [either DM on Instagram or send to Info@welcometohorror.com]. WE’RE READY TO DISBELIEVE YOU. No prep needed on this, just tune in and join us.

ChrisI'm Chris.
AdamI'm Adam.
LeeAnd we are here again, there will be no spoilers this week because we aren't covering a film.
LeeThere will be swearing and I would like to start state from the beginning of the episode that I believe this is the best title for an episode we've ever had.
Leeand I can take
ChrisWe've had some pretty good titles.
ChrisYeah. Adam Adam comes out with some very good.
LeeSo this evening, this is Lee's Haunted 2: Electric Loup-Garou.
LeeYes, get in.
AdamYou champion.
Leeso we did an episode a couple of months back where we discussed our quote unquote true ghost stories.
Leeand we got a lot of good feedback from people and we thought, oh, lots of people are interested and saying that they've got stories of their own.
LeeAnd and so we were like, yeah, chuck it out there, and people can tell us send us their true ghost stories and we can discuss them.
LeeBut it would appear that all of our listeners like us don't fucking believe in them.
LeeBecause we had one email from a good friend of ours, who did say this isn't supernatural, but it's just really weird.
LeeAnd it is a great story so we will be reading Joe's story in a little bit.
Leebut in the meantime, in the absence of any supernatural stories, we are going to discuss and also, so we can sho horn that name in.
Leewe are going to discuss the South End Werewolf.
LeeAdam, I believe you know more about this than the rest of us.

AdamAnd ever since I was a kid, scared the shit out of me.

AdamAnd they've got werewolf.

AdamAnd I had a read of the story, didn't didn't disabused me of any fear apart from the fact that the guy's not actually technically a werewolf.
AdamIn so much as he doesn't turn into a wolf.
