There's a woman in Trinidad who digs up graves to make an oil that lets her peel off her own skin, a woman on a dark country road who isn't fully human below the knee, and something living in the water that decides, song by song, whether you make it home.

These aren't campfire stories, they're three pieces of real Trinidadian folklore.

I'm Mischa Harper, and this week on the Decoffinated Podcast we are diving intto the stories of the Soucouyant, La Diablesse, and Mama D'Leau. Socials:

Prosecutors called it one of the only times in American legal history a Ouija board was formally entered into evidence, because it was the only thing in the room that explained the motive.

It started like any other night at Brian and Tammy Roach's house in Minco, Oklahoma — a farming town of about 1,400 people. Tammy's mother, Carol Sue Elvaker, was over, like she was most evenings. Fifty-three years old. No criminal history. Nothing that would ever make you look twice at her. So how does a grandmother like that become a murderer?
