Read 26 chilling stories, from two paranormal investigators, about reportedly true encounters with monsters in the South and Southeast.


A mysterious winged creature descends upon a community, leaving behind a horrific disaster and whispers of a deadly omen. A family’s peaceful night becomes a nightmare when their home is attacked by otherworldly beings. In the dead of night, a man is visited by a monstrous half-dragon, half-bird beast. The South’s history includes several unimaginable encounters with legendary creatures. This collection of “ghost stories” presents the creepiest, most surprising tales of monsters in the states of Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, and West Virginia.


Authors Jessica Freeburg and Natalie Fowler are active paranormal investigators with a shared fascination for things that go bump in the night. The professional writers spent countless hours combing the region for the strangest and scariest run-ins with the unexplained.


Horror fans and history buffs will delight in these 26 terrifying tales. They’re based on reportedly true accounts, proving that the Southern USA is the setting for some of the most unnerving monster tales ever told. The short stories are ideal for quick reading, and they are sure to captivate even the most reluctant of readers. Share them with friends around a campfire or try them alone at home—if you dare.
