About this listen

 Every October, spooky stories resurface — and here in Louisville, few loom larger than the Goatman, also known as the Pope Lick Monster, said to haunt a railroad trestle in eastern Jefferson County. Michael Book is the author of “The Legend of Pope Lick.” He spoke with LPM’s Ayisha Jaffer about the Goatman’s origins, the dangers around the legend, and how it lives on through the upcoming Goatman Festival.
