Yasmine starts us off with the Dark Watchers that closely monitor the California mountains, known to be present since the Chumash people. Reportedly featureless and make their presence known to hikers and travelers. Are they just watching over their land? Or is there a more sinister reason behind their presence, like aliens studying our planet and gathering information?
Jen brings a tale from a recent trip to coastal NC called The Devil's Hoofprints from Richard Walser's book "North Carolina Legends". Bath, NC is the state's oldest town and reportedly Blackbeard's home for a time. While the town enjoyed success as a port town at first, the townspeople's close relationship with the pirates lead to them seriously ticking off a famous evangelist, changing the town's luck to this day. Yet another event involving Bath resident Jesse Elliott and his passion for horse racing would further cast a dark shadow over the town when he inadvertently challenged the devil himself to a race!
We love to hear from our listeners! Tell us what myths/lore/legends/paranormal/folktales/fables/fairy tales you would like to hear covered on the show. Want to be a guest? Let us know by connecting with us:
