10 Things in the Appalachian Woods That Shouldn’t Be There

from The Strange and Unusual Podcast · host Alyson Horrocks | Morbid Network

There’s an old rule in the Appalachian Mountains, if you hear your name called from the woods, don’t answer. This week, we’re delving into the hills to find out why. We cover folklore  from a 200-year-old Tennessee haunting that killed a man, to a 10-foot creature that emerged in West Virginia in 1952, to the thing in the trees that learns your voice.
