224-African Folklore: It's the Great Pumpkin, Kiali

224-African Folklore: It's the Great Pumpkin, Kiali

This week, it's a story from Africa (more specifically the Nilamba people in northern Tanzania) about a hunt for a murderer that goes off the rails very quickly with talking animals...and giant, sad pumpkins.

The creature this week is a dancing horse. A big chunky ballerina boy who wants to give you a high five at 2100 RPM.
