The Swamp Gothic podcast examines the folklore and legends of the deep South. While most of the stories we look at focus primarily on Louisiana, that’s not to say we won't have occasional field trips to other parts of the South.
I'm your host, Robert Pickering, and I was born and raised in Lafayette, Louisiana, the Heart of the Cajun Country, so I was introduced to these tales from an early age, and I’ve maintained that interest ever since. This weekly show will cover all kinds of interesting subjects, from ghosts and spirits to monsters and cryptids, spooky legends, maybe even the occasional alien. If it has anything to do with the paranormal or supernatural, or even just the unusual, we’ll cover it here. Everything is fair game. In fact, if you have any ideas about what we should cover, visit us at the Swamp Gothic Facebook page and let us know.
