Sometime Between Dusk and Dawn Ghost Stories JANNETTE QUACKENBUSH

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 one from my newest book and the second in my series, Haunted Hikes of the Appalachian Hills and Hollows which contains ghost stories, legends, and abandoned places from seven different states, including this one from West Virginia along with directions and maps so you can check out the ghost story and perhaps, be scared by the ghost!

In the mid-1700s, Native Americans and settlers fought over the land where Morgantown, West Virginia stands today. . . with horrifying results that left a terrifying ghost behind. And you can visit the site if you dare!

I just finished my second book on Haunted Hikes of the Appalachian Hills and Hollows which included ghost stories, legends, and abandoned places in Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina, West Virginia, Kentucky, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. It is the perfect time of year to check out some scary places secreted into the Appalachian wilds. And for those who know me well, you know I don’t just write about it. I go to the site and check it out. And—you should get out there too! Here is a local Hocking Hills region story tucked within the pages of my book about a thief and a certain haunted cave that you can visit too—

A man and horses haunt a rock shelter off a lonely stretch of dirt-gravel road at the head of a valley. He died many years ago, and the reason for this haunting might have something to do with the dead man’s deeds in life.

Want to visit the cave? It is at Wayne National Forest,  12318 Burton Hill Road New Straitsville, Ohio 43766

(39.545483, -82.226367) Watch for the small gravel pull-off. The rugged trail is on the same side as the pull-off. Have fun, follow Wayne National’s rules, and be careful!

It is time to dredge up ghost stories from Christmases past and pass them along as tradition allows because in days of old, the time to tell the most terrifying stories around the fireplace was in the chilliest days around Christmas. I would love to sit in a rickety rocking chair, letting the rockers creak and grind on the planks of an old wooden floor, near midnight and before a fire burning low to tell this story to you--I cannot . . . Oh, but maybe I can. Sit back. Relax. And let me tell you a haunting tale. . .

Deep in a nearly forgotten hollow in a forest in Virginia, an ancient haunted cabin is settled. Those who dare may stay there. I did.
