There is a history wordle called PastPuzzle. I am the developer, and I poured my heart and soul into this project. While on the train, I just scrolled through all 600 of today's riddle posts.

The English version is quite new, so I would be the happiest person on earth if you checked it out: pastpuzzle.de.

Just read about what has got to be one of the most unapologetically scary groups of all time: the Tonton Macoutes during Haiti's dictatorship. "Tonton Macoute" translates to "Bogeyman"; in the Haitian version, he who would punish unruly children by snaring them in a gunny sack (macoute) and then eating them for breakfast. Oh, they also wore patches with creepy skulls and were led by a man who extorted blood plasma from locals ("the Vampire of the Caribbean"). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonton_M
