GHOST STORIES AND SPOOKY TALES

In Appalachian storytelling traditions, ghost stories and spooky tales hold a special place, reflecting the region's rich folklore and deep connection to the past. These narratives often feature haunted locations, spectral apparitions, and eerie happenings, passed down through generations around campfires and family gatherings. Rooted in the rugged landscape and historical experiences of Appalachia, these tales not only entertain but also serve as cautionary stories, preserving local history and cultural values. The ghostly lore of the mountains continues to captivate listeners, blending supernatural elements with the unique character of Appalachian life.
