This episode explores horror through the lens of African American folklore and literature, reflecting on the impact of history.
Somewhere at the edge of a marsh, the night waits like it knows your secrets. Heavy air presses against your chest, and the quiet feels alive. Sometimes, the things that come for you are already within before you even notice. In honor of Black History Month, these stories come from African American folklore and early Black literature, where horror isn’t always about monsters, but about what history leaves behind.
