Southern Oddities

Cassadaga is not only, a Native American word meaning "water beneath the rocks", but is also. a small unincorporated community located in Volusia County, Florida, just north of Deltona.

Nothing compares to this one particular small town in the entire state. In fact, this small slice of Florida has gained huge popularity with the spiritualist community, and is known for having many certified psychics, mediums, and healers living within its homes.

Astonishing enough, many call the small town of Cassadaga "The Psychic Capital of the World". In this secluded community, psychics and mediums, are known to communicate with ghosts, the spirit world, or those who are haunted by them. While visiting the town today, it might give many the creeps, but it’s the interesting history, of this small town, that will leave you with goosebumps from the spirit world.

The Ozarks, also known as the Ozark Mountains, is a region located in the Southern states of Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and the southeastern corner of Kansas. The traditional Ozark culture includes stories and tunes, passed orally, between generations, through community music parties, and other informal gatherings. With many of these tunes and tales having been traced back to British origins and German folklore. Most formations of Ozark lore come from individual families, when "backwoods parents begin telling outrageous whoppers to their children, and end by half believing the wildest of these tales themselves.", And among these legends, especially within the Arkansas folklore, there is no shortage of monsters and strange creatures, with one of the most popular tales, of a mysterious bear like creature. Living deep within the woods of the Ozarks. With its territory extending from Southern Missouri to Northern Arkansas. With even more sightings having been recorded in Oklahoma and Texas, the legend of the Ozark Howler.

The town of Carrollton has a very dark and troublesome past. Situated around the Pickens County Courthouse. As the courthouse square was used frequently as a site for public lynching's by whites, of African Americans. It was part of a program of intimidation and racial terrorism, part of numerous efforts to suppress the African American people. During a time of high tensions, as whites struggled for dominance, with many senseless and barbaric murders, that were frequent in the decades on either side of the turn of the 20th century. On November 16th, 1876, the people of Carrollton, Alabama, watched as the their courthouse burned to the ground, for a second time. The townspeople demanded vengeance for the arson, and despite a lack of circumstantial evidence, the people of Carrollton started pointing fingers at a freedman in town, Henry Wells, as a suspect for the arson. Starting what would ultimately become, one of the state of Alabama's most bizarre stories of the supernatural and the unexplained. Pictured on a pane of glass.. the Face in the Courthouse Window.

Baked beans..is a dish traditionally containing white beans which are boiled and then baked at a low temperature for a lengthy period of time in some sort of sauce.. and this is the usual preparation of the dish in the United States when not using canned beans..as Canned baked beans are not baked, but are cooked through a steam process. Today, baked beans are commonly served all throughout the United States alongside barbecue food of various kinds and at picnics... with the beans in a brown sugar, sugar, or corn syrup sauce. Sometimes with or with out a tomato base...But one company, located in Tennessee, would become the king of baked beans in the United States....selling more beans than anyone else... by producing 80% of the canned baked beans consumed in the United States.... Bush Brothers & Company...the most well known baked bean company...with its labeled Bush's Best....and not only does the company know their beans, they also expanded the old Bush General store into a museum and visitor center. And most might assume this place exist because of the talking dog Duke. But in fact...the museum is an outgrowth of AJ Bush's 1891 general store, and the cannery across the road that was built by AJ. And despite the the museum being out in the middle of no-where. The museum churns through more than a thousand bean crazed visitors a day during the summer.. and according to its visitors. Its like visiting the Emerald City from the Wizard of OZ.

Haddix is located near the confluence of Troublesome Creek. A small settlement with no roads or railways to connect it to the nearby towns until 1910... and this creek is located in Breathitt, Perry, and Knott counties in Kentucky. With the surrounding watershed named after it but why all this talk about troublesome creek?... its because a strange medical condition was discovered in troublesome creek. And this condition was so peculiar that some didn't really believe the story.

The descendants of the Fugate family of Troublesome Creek, and a related family in nearby Ball Creek...The Blue Fugates, sometimes known as the Huntsville subgroup, were well known in the area, and their genetic disorder went unidentified until the mid twentieth century, when the amount of affected people...from this extremely rare genetic trait.. had greatly decreased...ultimately finding a cure for this indigo trait.
