Jon here; sorry for the erratic uploads. Turn down the lights and listen to 5 terrifying Appalachian tales: Grayson Highlands, Hazard, Harlan County & more.

I’m reading five listener-submitted Appalachian horror stories. Real accounts from the Appalachian Trail, Grayson Highlands, Hazard (KY), Harlan County, and remote eastern Kentucky cabins. If you love true regional ghost stories, unexplained encounters, and Appalachian folklore, this one’s for you.

Stories in this video:

00:00 — Intro

00:35 — The Hollow-Skinned Man (Appalachian Trail — Grayson Highlands)

08:31 — The Cave Thing (Hazard, Kentucky – coal mine encounter)

13:19 — The Silent Family (western North Carolina / Blue Ridge Mountains)

20:03 — The Knock at the Cabin (eastern Kentucky Airbnb)

26:43 — The Man in the Cornflower Suit (Harlan County / highway)
