In the rolling hills outside Nebraska City lies a road with a name that carries more weight than any map: Seven Sisters Road. For over a century, people have whispered about the seven young women said to have died here—and the voices, shadows, and screams that still haunt the pavement today.

But the versions of the story don’t agree. Some say a brother betrayed his sisters in the most horrific way. Others insist the tragedy was rooted in Native history, or that it was nothing more than a tragic accident on a dangerous stretch of land. And yet, no matter which version you hear, the ending never changes: seven sisters, gone.

So tonight, we’ll step into the mystery. We’ll unravel the folklore, the history, and the eyewitness encounters that keep this road alive in the imagination of Nebraskans—and ask what it really means when a legend refuses to fade.

Join me in the Map Room as we trace the shadows of Seven Sisters Road and uncover why this chilling story has endured for generations.

In the quiet hills of Maryland, whispers of a winged monster grew into full-blown panic. With iron claws, a blazing eye, and a scream like a locomotive, the Snallygaster terrified generations of settlers and farmers. By 1909, the hysteria reached a fever pitch—newspapers fanned the flames, the Smithsonian was rumored to be interested, and even President Theodore Roosevelt’s name was tied to the hunt.

But where did this monster come from? Was it just folklore carried over by German settlers, a newspaper hoax gone too far, or something darker that still circles the Maryland skies?

Join me as we uncover the strange history of the Snallygaster—part folklore, part frenzy, and part nightmare that refuses to die.

In Sauk Centre, Minnesota, townsfolk whispered about something that didn’t make sense. A black hearse, mourners dressed in black, the scent of lilies drifting on a cold October night… and then, nothing. The entire funeral vanished at the corner of Main and Oak.

Join me in the Map Room as we dig into the chilling tale of Sauk Centre’s phantom funeral procession—and uncover how fact, folklore, and fear turned it into a legend that still haunts Minnesota today.
