In this week's episode, Sammy looks into the bewitching tale of Connecticut's own Wicked Witch of Monroe: Hanna Cranna. Sammy wades through trout-filled rivers, encounters a familiar rooster, and finds herself wanting to embrace her inner witch with a long, flowy skirt. By the end, you'll be left craving more of the strange small-town legends that refuse to die. Do you have a ghost story, local lore, or urban legend you would like to share with the ladies?
