  • Summary

  • This episode looks at scary stories in the American Folklife Center archives, including ghost stories, witch tales, and other terrifying tales. Hosts Stephen Winick and John Fenn talk with AFC intern Hanna Salmon about scary stories in the new guide “Folktales and Oral Storytelling: Resources in the American Folklife Center Collections.” We then listen to and discuss a “Vanishing Hitchhiker” tale from Marty Weathers and Bill Henry of Georgia; the witch story “Skin, Don’t You Know Me?” from J. D. Suggs; a ghostly experience related by humanitarian Eartha M. M. White; and “The Two White Horses,” a classic spooky tale from Connie Regan-Blake.

    More information on the stories as well as photos of some the tellers and links to all the archival sources, can be found at https://blogs.loc.gov/folklife.
