In tonight‘s episode, we journey to the deep south, where we find ourselves at the Myrtles plantation in Saint Francisville, Louisiana. There, a young couple on a special anniversary weekend, finds their stay at the Myrtles is much more “special” than they could’ve ever imagined.

Welcome, listeners, to the inaugural episode of 'Haunts and Hollers,' where we peel back the veil of the ordinary to reveal the extraordinary tales of the American South. I’m your guide on this journey through shadowed forests and mist-laden bayous, a journey into the heart of Southern Gothic lore.

Tonight, we have two tales that will chill your bones and stir your soul. Our first story takes us deep into the Tennessee woods, where a father and son encounter something beyond their wildest dreams and darkest fears. It’s a tale of bonding, bravery, and the unknown that lurks in the heart of nature.

Then, we’ll journey to Louisiana, on a rain-soaked night where a family finds themselves amidst an extraordinary spectacle. Among the ancient oak trees, they witness a phenomenon that challenges the boundaries of reality. It’s a story that weaves together the beauty and mystery of the South, a reminder that sometimes, the most extraordinary things are hidden in plain sight.

So, settle in and let the Southern night envelope you. Whether you’re a believer in the supernatural or a seeker of stories, 'Haunts and Hollers' promises to take you on a journey you won’t soon forget. Welcome, to a world where every whisper and shadow has a story to tell.
