The Crying Tree on Cold River Road
from Holler Tales — Fexingo Horror · host Fexingo
October 2019. A narrow two-lane bridge outside Dunmore, West Virginia. One night in late autumn, a woman named Ellie Mercer drives home from her shift at the Piggly Wiggly and hears something new in the sound the wind makes passing through the old sycamore at the dead center of the bridge. She stops. She shouldn't. What she finds in the branches is not an animal. It is not a person, either — not anymore. But it remembers being one. And it wants her to remember too. Luna tells the story of a tree that does not grow, a sound that does not stop, and a witness who cannot unhear what she heard. There is no rescue. There is no explanation. There is only the road and the wind and the shape in the leaves. #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast #HollerTales #TheCryingTree #ColdRiverRoad #DunmoreWestVirginia #SycamoreTree #BridgeHorror #AppalachianHorror #EllieMercer #OctoberNight #SoundHorror #TreeEntity #MemoryHorror #LunaNarrates #SoloNarration #AtmosphericHorror #SlowBurn #FolkHorror #MountainStories Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
