About this episode

They say even the Devil can't break a happy home alone. Dive into 'The Barefoot Woman,' a classic African-American folktale from Alabama. When a couple's happiness irritates the Devil, he enlists a clever woman to sow the seeds of suspicion. A witty and wicked tale of trickery and temptation.
