Publisher Description

A collection of spine-tingling Appalachian ghost stories and tall tales passed down from generation to generation.  Whether they tell of faucets that drip blood, monster catfish that lurk at the bottom of quarries, or strange lights on the mountaintop, these stories will make you--like the people who are sharing them--question what you believe.

Foxfire has brought the philosophy of simple living to hundreds of thousands of readers, teaching creative self-sufficiency and preserving the stories, crafts, and customs of Appalachia.  Inspiring and practical, this classic series has become an American institution. In July 2016, Vintage Shorts celebrates Foxfire's 50th Anniversary.

There be Ghosts in this here Holler!

Both sides of my family are from West Virginia and the Appalachian Mountains. I'm no stranger to scary stories told of things hidden deep in those mountains. Stories handed down from generations ago.

These are fun stories that are told by generations of people and their experiences and encounters. Its like sitting around the campfire while grandpa tells you a spooky story!
