Series: The Feral Folklorist

There's a reason the American South feels haunted. Beneath every magnolia tree and along every back road, the land remembers its pacts and promises-the deals struck at crossroads, the jars buried beneath porches, the warnings whispered before death ever came. The Feral Folklorist, Volume 1: Hauntings, Hexes, and the Cursed South gathers thirteen true stories where folklore, superstition, and history overlap. Each chapter pulls from the acclaimed podcast The Feral Folklorist and invites readers into the strange heart of supernatural belief.

Step inside the tomb of Marie Laveau, the Voodoo Queen of New Orleans, and learn why her grave still draws offerings from pilgrims and practitioners alike. Visit haunted plantations where mirrors were covered to keep the dead from returning, and hear the echoes of Appalachian death omens that once warned families when to pray-or prepare. Walk the same roads where the legend of Elizabeth Bathory took root in the New World, and face the mystery of the Dybbuk Box, a cursed object whose story blurs the boundary between faith and fear.

Part Southern Gothic history, part folk-magic field guide, this collection explores how real people used spells, charms, and superstition to survive the unknown.

Inside you'll discover:

- Crossroads magic and devil legends

- Witch bottles and hidden hexes

- Appalachian omens of death and protection

- Southern ghosts and graveyard lore

- True accounts of folk magic, superstition, and belief
