953 The Haunted South

EPISODE #953 THE HAUNTED SOUTH Richard welcomes a storyteller and podcast producer to discuss the haunted history of the South-- from battlefields to plantations, the Louisiana swamps to Appalachia, and how ghost stories and folklore evolve over time into well known myths and legends. GUEST: Brandon Schexnayder hosts the chart-topping history podcast Southern Gothic, a show that explores the dark history of the American South and sheds light on some of its most infamous legends, mysteries, true crime, and haunted places. Born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana, he eventually moved to Franklin, Tennessee to work in the music industry as an audio engineer. His experience in recording studios working with some of country and Americana music's best storytellers, eventually drove him to dive deeper into his passion for "good old fashioned tradin' lies!" Today, you'll find Brandon traveling all over the South looking for tales, leading ghost tours through the old Civil War town of Franklin, or producing podcasts for Southern Gothic Media and several clients, including Southern Fried True Crime, and One Strange Thing.
