Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Folklore and ghost stories are important. They connect us to our past, and keep memories alive in one form or another. Unfortunately, many stories and tales appeared in books and periodicals that are hard to find, out of print, or have vanished completely. Inside you'll read about the ghosts, urban legends, superstitions about witches, mysterious creatures, strange unidentified flying objects, and other tall tales from Avery, Madison, Watauga, and Yancey Counties, North Carolina. Some books are good at "spinning a yarn", especially out of Southern Appalachian urban legends. Other books have presented the folklore as presented. Word of mouth can completely change a story, as well. Whenever possible, this book dives deep into a story to uncover the persons and true stories behind the legends.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just as the Blue Ridge Mountains dot the landscape of this famed North Carolina county, so do the spirits of the residents who have long since passed. At the Hickory Ridge Museum, one cabin fills with the scent of pipe tobacco just before its otherworldly resident appears, and the ghost of a hanged Tory captain rides his steed along Riddle's Knob every misty midnight. From the story of the haunted spring near the Watauga River frequented by the ghost of a headless dog to the distant buzz of a phantom airplane flying high above Howard's Knob mountain in Boone, these tales are bound to chill even the bravest of readers. Noted journalist Tim Bullard delves into the eerie past of Watauga County as he recounts the stories of the souls doomed to forever roam the pine-covered hills.
