Legends and Lore

Legends and lore abound at this time of year. The days are shorter, the weather colder, and Halloween is a week away. In our time, Halloween is a fun time of year where the normal becomes paranormal, ghosts lurk around every corner, and children get to dress up and go house to house hoping for a sack full of sticky treats at the end of the night. Abandoned and run-down houses become “haunted”. Urban legends like “The Hook” and “The White Lady” begin to make the rounds again.
