Sometime Between Dusk and Dawn Ghost Stories JANNETTE QUACKENBUSH

There’s an old train bed deep within the forests of southeastern Ohio within the Hocking Hills, a remote path found by taking buckled pavement streets and sketchy gravel roads. The tracks were built in the 1850s for the Marietta and Cincinnati Railroad. They passed through coal mining towns like Hope Furnace Station, Moonville, Ingham Station, Kings Station, and Mineral City. When a young man was killed walking these tracks on a lonely stretch of railroad, a ghost began to show up near an old train tunnel. This is the story of the Eight Foot Ghost of King Tunnel along the Moonville Rail Trail.

Welcome to Sometime Between Dusk and Dawn Ghost Stories. This episode is written and produced by me, Jannette Quackenbush, with folklore drawn from many resources. There is more than just this podcast. You can buy my book series on Amazon and in bookstores like Grandma Fayes, just a few miles from Old Man’s Cave, including this lore from my Ohio Ghost Hunter Guide II. When a gravestone began moving on its own accord within a cemetery in a remote section outside Chillicothe, Ohio, passersby once flocked to witness a ghostly form in its wake.

Winter Hike in the Hocking Hills is coming on January 20, 2024. (Find more info here: The Hocking Hills) Those hiking the trail during the event may come upon some spirits. Of course, Old Man Retzler and his baying hound are known to show up at Old Man’s Cave, and the Pale Lady follows hikers at Ash Cave. But between the two areas,
the trail will lead along Queer Creek and to Cedar Falls, where ghosts are said to tarry. Their peculiar screams are explained as this--

In the early 1800s, a mill powered by the waters of Queer
Creek sat on the rim of Cedar Falls. Nearby was a massive beech tree with words engraved in its ancient trunk, “This is the road to hell, 1782.”

You can find this story and others in my book Haunted Hocking Hills.

Out of the Ashes: An old story from Hocking County, Ohio

Welcome to Sometime Between Dusk and Dawn Ghost Stories. This episode is written and produced by me, Jannette Quackenbush, with folklore drawn from many resources.
But, there is more than just this podcast. You can buy my book series on Amazon and in bookstores, including this bit of lore, Rising from the Ashes, from my Haunted Hocking Hills book.
I found this treasure in an old newspaper the Ohio Democrat from Logan, Ohio from November 1900.


A story is told of a ghost left behind in Hocking County from an ill-fated couple long-dead.



You can actually hike a trail through the valley and perhaps run into the ghost!
