Why are there no Christmas ghost stories in Florida…or anywhere really?

As the Holidays get closer, Christopher Balzano and Natalie Crist take a close look at the evolution of the Christmas ghost story and the history of folklore revolving around this time of year. They explore Saint Lucy, Krampus, and some little known holiday haunts as they try to discover the truth behind why Christmas is no longer haunted.

Listen in on Christmas Eve as they revive the tradition of telling tales of ghost and ghouls on that most holy of nights:
