Show Notes

Happy Season 3 lovies! We are back to you with more stories and some new voices! Matthew Barron visits us and hangs for an episode. Matthew is a local author and check out our Insta for a pic of his books! Tori goes first and tells of yet another cemetery, Metairie Cemetery in New Orleans. This cemetery had a prior incarnation as a horse racing track. This is one of the only places in the city that is actually high ground. Matthew tells us of the local legend and tv personality, Sammy Terry! This legendary horror host is the longest running horror host in the US. Those of us Gen X and younger have childhood memories of him but he continues to delight viewers to this day. We drop into the world of tropes and why antiheroes/monsters are what most of us identify/ sympathize with. Krys continues on smartly with the Barbee Hotel. Cue more gangster cameos from our fair state, this hotel had a long history with those who had shady business practices. And of course there is a murder, many ghost stories, and some unsolved crimes to round out this hotel. Tori finishes up with Locust Grove State Historical Site and White Oak Flats Cemetery  in Gatlinburg(that’s for you Alan).
