    This week we're adding another installment to our North Carolina Series with the Devil's Tramping Ground! This is a story, or "legend," Harley and I have grown up hearing since we were kids and have thought about exploring ourselves.  Unfortunately this is now private property (so don't go trespassing!!!), but we can tell you all about it in this episode!

    Second times the charm! Apologies for the confusion everyone, this episode has been corrected :) The Sorrel-Weed House looks innocent with it's pretty pink walls and architectural charm, but it has been said to be one of the most haunted locations in Savannah, Georgia AND even in the United States. Battles were fought on the property prior to the construction of the house and many tragedies took place while the Sorrel family lived here. Join us this week has we take a deep dive into the history and hauntings of this mansion and stick around for some first hand encounters from a recent trip and tour of the property!
