Today's episode is a bit of a lighter one, focusing on Appalachian folklore. Tons of superstitions, omens, and general haint prevention filtered in to early Appalachian culture via the Scotch-Irish, German, and African settlers. Much of this folklore is still present in the area to this day and greatly influences daily life and belief.
