In the misty wine country of Yamhill County, Oregon, lies a town with a curse—if you believe the story. It’s got classic ghost story vibes: a man hanged for murder, a grieving, defiant mother, and a string of deadly fires. Oh also, a ghost said to laugh from behind the headstones. This is the tale of Lafayette, a town once burned by tragedy and perhaps something darker.
* The Murder That Sparked the Flame: Who was Richard Marple, and why did this crime matter so deeply to a tiny pioneer town?
* Anna Marple’s Curse: Witch, scapegoat, or vengeful mother? What really happened at the hanging?
* The Fires That Followed: Three separate infernos scorched the town. How much of the story is documented fact vs. folklore?
* The Ghost in the Cemetery: A look at the firsthand accounts of hauntings and their role in local identity.
* What Folklore Can Teach Us About Fear: Why we hold onto legends like these and what they reveal about how we process trauma and justice.
