    This show is sneaky. It has disguised itself as another ghost story podcast but it’s so much more. Chris’s stories that he sneaks in among the folklore are incredible. He hides some of the most haunting and beautifully written prose in an episode about a cryptid. I came for the folklore but have stayed for a masterclass in storytelling.

    Chris is relatable and tells a great story. I really enjoy the format that takes us though the states in alphabetical order- we get history, lore and stories based on the lore. I truly enjoy this podcast.

    Love the show ! And your pronunciations are entertaining but the description of Blackbeard’s ghost gets it backwards - wet sand would cling and seaweed tangle not the other way round. Looking forward to hearing about your travels to haunted places !
