Moon Mulligan - The Dogman : Origins.

Moon Mulligan is the result of the combination of my love for folklore, conspiracy theories, and metal music. I like to make music and edit together little videos.

Narration: Ol' Cracker

-------------------------

He had tried everything. He had prayed, he had worked, he had begged. But nothing could save his crops from the relentless dust that choked the life out of them. His wife and children were starving, and he had no money to buy food or move to a better place. He felt like a failure, a burden, a curse. Between the Dust Bowl and what they were calling a depression, he felt hopeless.

One night, he decided to do the unthinkable. He walked down to the crossroads, where he had heard stories of a man who could grant any wish for a price. He waited until midnight.

He didn't have to wait long. A tall, dark figure appeared out of the shadows, wearing a suit and a hat. He had a smile that was both charming and sinister, and his eyes glowed red in the dark.

"Hello, friend," he said in a smooth voice. "What can I do for you?"

The man swallowed hard and said, "I need food for my family. I need a good harvest in my fields. I need a way out of this hell."

The figure nodded and said, "I can give you all that, and more. But you know the deal, right? You have to give me something in return. Something very precious. Something you can never get back."

The man hesitated, but he was desperate. He thought of his wife and children, and how much he loved them. He thought of how much they suffered. He thought of how much he hated himself, and how little he valued his own life.

The poor gentleman finally spoke: "I'll give you my soul. Take it."

The Devil grinned and said, "Done. But there's a catch. You see, I don't just want your soul. I want your body, too. I want to make you into something new. Something different. Something... special."

The man felt a surge of fear and said, "What are you going to do to me?"

The figure said, "You'll see soon enough. But don't worry, you'll get your wish. Your fields will be green and fertile, and your family will have plenty of food. But you won't be there to enjoy it. You'll be roaming the land, as a beast of the night. A creature of legend. A Dogman."

The man tried to back away, but it was too late. The figure snapped his fingers, and a bolt of lightning struck the man. He screamed in agony, as he felt his body change. His bones cracked, his muscles stretched, his skin sprouted fur. His face elongated, his teeth sharpened, his ears perked. His hands and feet became paws, his nails became claws, his eyes became yellow. He collapsed on the ground, no longer a man, but a monster. A half man, half dog creature.

He looked at the figure, who was laughing wickedly. "Welcome to your new life, Dogman," he said. "You got what you wanted, but you lost what you had. You sold your soul, and you paid the price. Now, run along, and enjoy your freedom. You have a lot of ground to cover, and a lot of people to scare. Maybe you'll even find some friends, among the other creatures of the night. Who knows, maybe you'll even like it."

He vanished, leaving the dogman alone. The dogman felt a surge of anger, sadness, and regret. He realized he had made a terrible mistake, and he wished he could take it back. But he couldn't. He was stuck in this form, forever. He had lost his family, his humanity, his soul.

He got up, and ran away from the crossroads, into the darkness. He didn't know where he was going, or what he was doing. He only knew he had to keep moving, to escape from his pain. He became a wanderer, a loner, a legend. He became the Dogman.
