There were some issues with the Night Folk encounters on the latest patches from what i have read. Plus if you have completed the mission with the old cajun called "A Fine Night for it", they don't show up again. So it's better to start the mission once you have completed all of the encounters.

I thought "A Fine Night for it" simply unlocked the compendium for the Night Folk.

So basically ... a “ you pledged genocide on the nite folk “ mention in the log wouldn’t be too far fetched !

@Phoenixskull295 I don't think there is anything in the compendium or in the pause menu about the Night Folk apart from showing that the mission has been completed.

@Roel The allmighty fair point! But i can't tell whether or not it says something on the log after you complete the mission.

@Petkoholic For clarity, I was referring to how completing the mission would allow the player to interact with them as "Night Folk" rather than "Stranger".

And when the gang arrived in lakay , it’s mentioned that Sadie and Charles chased the original inhabitants away ( which where probably the nightfolk .

The swamps of Lemoyne are very slimey and alligator filled but the night folk set it off. As well as tall trees. Y’all trees is a beautiful area but the skinners and murphee brood make it hell. The trees are red with blood but sometimes their is people hanging all over which makes y’all trees more scaries. But don’t get me wrong the silent night folk are TERRIFYING

There are no Murphrees in Tall Trees, only Skinners. But they do act in a similiar way.

I have not been in tall trees before and not been attacked by a bear

The nite folk DO TALK . I hogtied one once and loaded him on my horse . He was swearing and insulting me when i cut him loose in a saloon in saint denis . He ran away later and I went after him . Said something like FUCK YOU !!( I don’t really remember what exactly but something in that matter ) . The majority of them seem to be black people as well . I don’t know if there’s a connection with runaway slaves but it sure looks like it .
