b'*Urban Legends Hotline* The inbred cannibal pig people who are said to inhabit Pig Hill in Meadville, PA attack teenagers who park on its lovers lane. But these are far from the only human-pig hybrids featured in American urban legends. For this episode, not only are we sharing different variations of the tale, but we are also digging deep into the weird history of pigs: Puritan bestiality trials, soldier-eating feral swine, hybrid animal experiments, the pigs who ruled the early cities, and what the history of the hog teaches us about suburbanization and the dehumanization of those the elite consider "unclean."\\n\\nIf you have an urban legend you\'d like us to explore, head to americanhysteria.com and leave us a message!\\n\\nThank you to our listener Erin Hipple!\\nThanks to our author Nancy Williams!\\n\\nBecome a Patron to support our show and get early ad-free episodes and bonus content\\n\\nAmerican Hysteria is written, produced, and hosted by Chelsey Weber-Smith\\nSound design by Clear Commo Studios\\nResearch Assistant: Riley Swedelius-Smith\\nVoice acting by Will Rogers\\nProducer: Miranda Zickler\\nLearn more about your ad choices.
