Welcome back to Spooktober! In Part 2 of the second annual GDF Spooktober Spooktacular, we head into the Appalachian woods to talk about the legends, strange encounters, and things that make you reconsider going for a nice, peaceful hike.

We’re talking the mysterious Brown Mountain Lights, Appalachian haints and bottle trees, the terrifying legend of Aunt Kate, the Not Deer, mimics, and the stories of people hearing their own names called from the woods. Why do so many people report strange experiences that sound eerily similar?

Along the way, we explore how Native American traditions and Appalachian folklore overlap and try to figure out what might be behind it all. Is there a reasonable explanation for these encounters, or are some things better left alone?

One important lesson from this episode: If you hear your name in the woods, no you didn’t. And if you get a bad feeling? Get to steppin’!

Have you ever experienced something you couldn’t explain? Send us your story! You can request to remain anonymous. Got a favorite Appalachian legend or spooky story you want us to cover? We want to hear it.

Subscribe for more comedy, conversations, college football, weird rabbit holes, and whatever else Josh and Patrick get themselves into.
