The correct spelling is "loup-garou" which translates into werewolf, of course. That’s right, Barry. The correct spelling is “loup-garou” which translates into werewolf, of course.

Although I grew up in Crowley, I had not heard the word rougarou until I lived in New Iberia for a short time. I've been livng in Texas now for 11 years, and I have asked so many people about the ty ty that the girls in New Iberia often referred to - no one could tell me his name, although I was CERTAIN that I had not made this up! FINALLY you have solved my mystery - thank you so much for keeping our culture alive! Oh how I celebrated when I read this!

When at his camp in Dulac, at night he'd shine his flashlight on the woods behind the camp and when it reflected on the rabbit's eyes, he'd tell us "see, the Rougarou is out there, if you're not good he'll come get you , he knows when u bad". Grandpa's been dead for 21 years this month and I remember this like it was yesterday. Thanks for this wonderful site to keep Cajun alive. OH, I loved my grandpa’s stories of the rougarou.

It truly made me smile. Just as you, I always was scared of the “loup garoux” (loo-ga-roo). We also called them ty-tys - meaning scary creatures out in the woods and swamps. Everyone was always on the alert of a ty-ty when nightfall came, but when we opened the windows at my Grandparents house and always saw the beautiful fire-flies, we knew there was no need to worry any longer. They were my fairies. :) Thanks so much for your comment. Judy Hiya Barry,

In my family we used both Rougarou and Loup Garoux. I'm not sure if it was a generation thing or a regional thing (because I can't remember who used which version). My Grandpa, who lived in Opelousas but grew up in Riceville, used the term Rougarou. I think my mom uses loup garoux... like you. ;-) Hey Barry,
