Happy first episode of spooky season!

We are kicking off October with a murder in Hex Hollow. You see, in Hex Hollow, folk remedies were meant to heal, but one night they led to murder. The community was thrown into fear and suspicion, and the line between cure and curse became deadly clear.

There are ships that vanish without a trace… and then there are ships that turn up when they shouldn’t. The Carroll A. Deering was one of those. A five-masted schooner, found run aground off the Outer Banks in 1921, her crew gone without explanation. No distress call, no goodbye, nothing. Some say it was mutiny, others say pirates, and a few still wonder if something far stranger was at play…

Late at night in Hawai'i, people say you can hear it start with the faint pound of drums. Then, a glow of torches flickering in the distance, and the ground almost feels like it’s alive, shaking with footsteps you can’t see. Locals will warn you: if the Night Marchers come your way, you don’t look, you don’t breathe, you don’t move. Because if you do… you might not be here by morning.

Behind the calm voice and polite demeanor was something truly sinister. In the 1970s, a towering figure roamed the California coast, hiding monstrous urges behind an ordinary exterior. He charmed, he manipulated, and he killed his victims as proxies in a twisted war with the one woman who haunted his life the most...

Hi friends! We’ll be back very soon on September 2nd with a brand new lineup and a wild first episode. In the meantime while you wait, check out one of our favorite Lore & Legends episodes on the Jersey Devil.

See you next week for a new episode!
-Megan

In the heart of the New Jersey Pine Barrens, where the trees grow dense and the roads give way to tangled wilderness, something stirs. The locals say you can hear it on the coldest nights...a high-pitched shriek, something not quite human, not quite beast.

The stories go back centuries. Some say it was a curse, an omen of misfortune that slithered into this world on a storm wracked night. Others claim it was the child of a mother who, in her desperation or her rage, called upon the Devil himself. The details shift with time, but the warning remains the same: stay out of the pines after dark...

Because if you listen closely, past the rustling leaves and the distant howl of the wind, you might just hear the beat of leathery wings.

And by then, it’s already too late.

The ad promised love.

The reply sealed a fate. Martha watched as Raymond penned another letter, his words a perfect trap—soft, seductive, laced with lies. She had read enough of them to know how this would end. A train ride, a candlelit promise, a kiss that tasted like forever.

Then the screams. The blood. The body they’d have to bury.

Another lonely heart, hopelessly in love. Hopelessly doomed.
