S10 E18 - F-Bomb - Yellow Mike - Forgotten Asylums, & the Legend that Learned to Watch

Yellow Mike is one of Michigan’s darkest folklore legends — a forgotten asylum patient, a sealed crate, and a being that learned how humans move, breathe, and fear. Some say he escaped. Some say he never existed. Others say he’s still watching.
