Haunted West Virginia: More Scary Stories and Creepy Tales to Keep You Up at Night
By Jannette Quackenbush
If you're a fan of the supernatural or simply love a good scare, Haunted West Virginia is a must-have for your collection!
Dive into an enchanting mix of the eerie and uncanny as folklorist Jannette Quackenbush unveils a treasure trove of ghost stories, eerie legends, and old-time folklore that have haunted the Mountain State for generations.
Bloody Bones. Ikey's Grave. Wizard Clip. Ghost Hollow. The Sodder Children. Mason County Screamer.
These and dozens more chilling tales wait inside-stories whispered around campfires, told on front porches, and passed down through families who swore they were true.
Imagine gathering around the fire or reading late at night, captivated by tales of haunting headless horsemen, cursed homesteads, and spirits who refuse to rest. From the ghostly cries echoing through hollows to the age-old warning of Rawhead and Bloody Bones, Quackenbush brings to life the stories that shaped West Virginia's folklore and still send chills down spines today.
Whether you're a local who grew up hearing these legends or a traveler drawn to the supernatural, Haunted West Virginia will transport you into a world where history and mystery intertwine-where the line between the living and the dead blurs in the Appalachian mist.
As founder of the 21 Crows American Folklore Archives, Jannette Quackenbush has spent more than four decades collecting and preserving Appalachian ghost stories and folk legends from original sources, old newspapers, and oral traditions. She is also the creator of Dark Journeys with Jannette, which brings folklore and field investigation together through public night hikes, lectures, and storytelling adventures across the region.
From the creepy old-time tales our grandmothers told-like The Tomb Where Ikie Sleeps-to forgotten ghost stories resurrected from West Virginia's earliest folklore collections, Quackenbush weaves together the haunting history and mystery of a state where the past never truly dies.
