In this Halloween special, the Creekside Convo team—Angel, Sahar, and Ananya—takes a haunting detour from the world of urban ecology and restoration into the eerie tales buried within Austin’s past. Join us as we explore four infamous local legends that go far beyond the ghost stories: the Austin State Hospital's tragic history, the Shoal Creek Massacre's haunting legacy, the spectral tales surrounding Austin’s historic Moonlight Towers, and the unsettling mysteries of Lady Bird Lake.
As we unravel these spooky stories, we reflect on how even the darkest moments in history shape our urban environment and the importance of conserving the landscapes that carry these tales. So, dim the lights, grab some candy, and prepare for a ghostly stroll through Austin's most chilling locations. You won’t want to listen alone!
