Episode notes
Episode 19 A Place of Slaughter: We talk about the Maneaters of Tsavo or the Ghost and the Darkness. Lieutenant Colonel John Henry Patterson was only thirty years old in 1898 when he was first sent to Mombasa (the oldest city in Kenya and nicknamed the island of war) then to Tsavo to ensure a bridge connecting the railroad lines was completed as efficiently as possible. When the first worker disappearances were reported, Patterson suspected foul play and not lion attacks. Join us for this wild ride into the past as we dive deep into the worst man-eating Lion incident in Africa's history.

Helena Blavatsky: "No myth is simply wholesale fable, rather narratives that convey profound truths even if embellished over time. Even the most fanciful legends begin as a grain of truth."
