About this episode

Allen Sircy investigates chilling legends of witches in Mississippi, exploring historical events and folklore.

In this episode of Southern Ghost Stories, "American Hauntotorian" Allen Sircy journeys into the heart of Mississippi to investigate two chilling legends where history and folklore collide. We first visit Yazoo City to explore the infamous 1904 fire and the vengeful witch whose chained grave at Glenwood Cemetery allegedly burst open to fulfill a twenty-year curse. Then, we head north to the ancient Natchez Trace Parkway to stand at "Witch Dance," a clearing marked by eerie, barren circles where nothing has grown for centuries.
