Craven Cannibals

In this episode of International Supernatural, we’re selecting the choicest among you for our Sunday roast as we sink our teeth into Craven Cannibals. Liam dissects the story of the ravenous Scottish cannibal Sawney Bean who terrorized Ayrshire with his family army of flesh eaters. While Alana is going straight to the wild wild west to wine and dine with Alferd Packer AKA the Colorado Cannibal.

Tangents include: Cannibal lunch, scaring Liam’s sister in-law, Alana's inflatable kayak, and old time-y naivety when it comes to asking for directions.
