The Moonlit Road Podcast - Southern Ghost Stories & Folklore
Leave the highway behind for the dark back roads of the American South.
Since 1997, The Moonlit Road has been gathering the Southern ghost stories, folklore, and oral traditions whispered across generations — from the bayous of Louisiana to the Sea Islands of Georgia to the hollows of Appalachia. In each episode, gifted storytellers, musicians, and folklorists bring you haunted history, forgotten legends, and the creatures that still stalk the Southern imagination: the Bell Witch, the Boo Hag, the Loup Garou.
This is the South that lives past the porch light — in the deep roots of Voodoo and Hoodoo, in the campfire stories and mountain haints, in the folklore of the Delta, the Piedmont, and the coastal plain. The stories your grandparents told you.
Thousands of listeners have walked this road for over 25 years. Come find us on the back roads.
