Deep in South Carolina’s low country, the legend of the Boo Hag has haunted generations. She’s said to slip into your home at night, stealing the very skin from your body before vanishing into the swamp. Most people tell the story as a warning.

But one man hears it as an invitation.

A former killer who once claimed his victims’ skins now stalks the Boo Hag herself, tracking the trail she leaves behind. For him, it’s more than folklore—it’s a way to feed the old hunger without drawing human blood. But in the humid dark, hunter and hunted blur, and the line between justice, obsession, and damnation disappears.

This episode of Haunted American History blends Southern Gothic atmosphere with one of South Carolina’s most chilling pieces of folklore. Perfect for fans of dark folklore, monster legends, and horror stories that walk the knife’s edge between man and monster.

In Rhode Island’s historic General Stanton Inn, guests have long reported the sound of a woman crying through the night—grief without a face, sorrow without end. But what if the ghost isn’t the one doing the haunting?

This week, we explore the legend of the crying ghost and present a new story about a man who carries his grief like a shadow… and the house that remembers everything.

I've written numerous stories over the years, and this one took a toll on me. Enjoy

In the deep woods of Pennsylvania, we explore the legend of the Giwoggle—a bizarre creature with the body of a wolf, the claws of a bird, and the hooves of a horse. Learn how witches once conjured this phantom to carry out revenge and how the legendary Loop Hill Ike hunted it, a real-life monster hunter from the 1800s. We trace its journey from a terrifying specter to a beloved local mascot that now marches in the annual town parade. Finally, we bring the legend to life with an original story inspired by this unique piece of American folklore.
