About this listen

 Louisiana's bayous are not just water and trees; they are veins of memory, grief, and hunger. In Bayou After Dark, Luna guides you through a world where the cypress roots hold secrets and the mist carries whispers of those who never made it home. Each episode is a self-contained story drawn from the folklore, history, and hidden corners of the American South: a trapper who catches something in his net that should not exist, a bride whose wedding veil is made of Spanish moss, a family who hears their own voices calling from the swamp at night. These are not jump scares. They are slow, inevitable dread—the feeling of a hand on your shoulder when you are alone in a boat. Luna's voice settles into the dark like the lantern on the prow, steady and close. The stories share a setting and a sensibility: the thick, humid terror of a place that remembers everything. Listen if you want to feel the water rising around your ankles. But do not look too long into the dark reflection.

  • The Song of Bayou Dularge — Fexingo Horror

    The Song of Bayou Dularge — Fexingo Horror
    May 11 2026
    A fisherman on Bayou Dularge hears an old woman singing from the marsh every night for a week, each night a little closer to his boat. He thinks it's a prank or a lost camper—until he finds the source: a woman in a white dress standing on the water, her mouth open too wide. Luna tells the story of Elodie Thibodeaux, who went missing in 1987, and what she sings to those who listen too long. A slow, humid dread that settles in your bones like the fog on the water.

  • The Hermit of Bayou Teche — Fexingo Horror

    The Hermit of Bayou Teche — Fexingo Horror
    May 10 2026
    In the summer of 2019, a drought shrank Bayou Teche to a trickle. That's when the parish drainage crew found something in the mud: a door, perfectly intact, hinged to a cypress root, leading nowhere. Luna's cousin Camille worked the crew. She told Luna what they saw when they pried it open — and what crawled out after dark. This is a story about a hole in the ground, a man who forgot his own name, and the sound of something scraping against the bottom of a pirogue. It happened just south of Breaux Bridge, on a stretch of water where the moss hangs so thick you can't see the bank. It happened to someone Luna knew. And it didn't end when they filled the hole back in.

  • The Seventh Gate of Bayou Sorrel — Fexingo Horror

    The Seventh Gate of Bayou Sorrel — Fexingo Horror
    May 9 2026
    Deep in the Atchafalaya Basin, past Bayou Sorrel, there is a stretch of water known only to a few. In the winter of 2019, a woman named Evangeline took me there. She'd lived her whole life on the bayou, and she'd seen things she couldn't explain. That night, she showed me the seventh gate—an old iron grate half-submerged in black water, rusted and half-eaten by moss. She said it wasn't a gate to keep things out, but to keep something in. And every time the water dropped low enough, the gate would groan. Not from the current. From something pressing against it from the other side. This is the story of what we heard that night, and what I saw when she opened it.
