Episode 411: 4th of July Extravaganza! Haunted Williamsburg and American Folklore & Tall Tales

13 O'Clock

On this pre-4th of July episode, Tom and Jenny are going all out, exploring some particularly American ghost stories, folklore, and tall tales. We’ll talk about the most haunted places in Williamsburg, Virginia, one of the oldest cities in the United States and a place with a ton of spooky stories attached to its centuries-old buildings. Then we’ll discuss a few American legends and tall tales, including Paul Bunyan, John Henry, and Pecos Bill. Happy Independence Day!
