Within every small town there are whispers of a dark and unpleasant history lurking among the locals. Things that have been deliberately cast from the memories of our elders in attempt at saving a family name, or perhaps, hushed, lest some vengeful demon be loosed to prove the rumors true. Here in Louisiana, it is much the same with the exception being, many of those rumors are based in horrific and blood wielding fact. With roots stemming so deeply in the dark arts and superstition, it comes as no surprise to the outsiders that there are many secrets and legends that are guarded closely by the locals. One such legend is that of the Dark Man. Born of Sicilian folk lore, the Dark Man made his way to American soil by way of migrant workers who were shipped in via the port of New Orleans. In Sicilian culture, the Dark Man was a ravenous demon that was blamed for the disappearance of any man, woman or child that went missing. Locals knew when half eaten corpses were discovered in the woods that the deceased had been taken and devoured by this beast. Described as a towering black void wearing a brimmed hat and a coat, the Dark Man terrified Sicilian culture for centuries. Some say he originated from a vengeful curse cast by a Strega, others believe that he descended upon the earth directly from Hell itself. But, when Stregheria (Sicilian witchcraft) met up with Creole Voodoo, a demon unlike any that had come before him, arose from the ashes.
