EP 25: THE ENFIELD HORROR OF ILLINOIS!
When there's a scratch at the door do you answer it? Well in the 1970's a man named Henry McDaniel opened the door to a scratching noise and what he saw would change his life forever. News of his discovery made its way to the police and soon to the public! The result of this news was that people from all over came to Illinois to see if they can see the creature Henry saw that night! Some tried to hunt it, some tried to film it and others tried to hide from it! Check out the latest episode of Campfire Adventures and find out what the creature is and if I needed a blanket or not to tell the story!!! Hope you all enjoy!
