Darkness Quote by Samuel Snoek-Brown

“Way my mama used to tell me, a girl what lusts after a man falls prey to the forces of darkness. The rougarou ain’t just a wolfman but a punishment sent by God to ravage a girl in the night, and if she survives she becomes one herself.” quote by Samuel Snoek-Brown
