Pleasing Terrors - Un pódcast de Mike Brown
Categorías:
The railroad tracks over the Tsavo river are flanked on either side with lush grasses. A picturesque river runs below, providing a calming base for the trains that rush from Uganda to Kenya and back again. During it’s construction, men from all over India and far parts of Africa gathered at the Tsavo river, working for months on end. At first, the men were oblivious to the twin pairs of golden eyes stalking them from the grasses… until half-devoured bodies and screams in the night became commonplace. From a distance, from a viewpoint high above the clouds, the Kenya-Uganda Railway snakes its way across deserts and through forests of thorns, trailing bloodshed and pain in its wake. Episode Highlights: Demons in the Forest of Thorns Lieutenant-Colonel John Henry Patterson and the Tsavo River Devoured men and lion prints: A campsite surrounded Patterson’s hunt for a pride of unordinary lions The figure on the platform Blood on the desert sand The price of the railroad Enjoyed this episode?
