Oh, Welcome to Spirit's

the spirits podcast, a busie dime into mythology, legends, and folklore.

Every week we pour a drink and learn about a new story from around the world.

I'm Amanda.

And I'm Julia.

And we are joined by one of our favorite spookiest friends.

Jeffrey Krenner, welcome to an Urban Legends episode of Spirits,

which you've never joined us for before. I have not thank y'all for having me. I'm so

excited. It is our pleasure. It feels like you are sort of an expert in like weird hometown happenings nowadays.

So it makes sense to have you here for a hometown urban legends episode.

I'm excited to. I'm excited to talk about weird things in hometowns. It's very good.

Jeffrey, I don't know if we've asked you this on the show before, but is there a particular

like urban legend or story that you think was like unique to your hometown that you grew up with or you just remember like hearing through the grape vibe?

In my head I think this story exists beyond just my hometown but when I've told it to people nobody recognizes it so

perfect if your listeners recognize the story as something from their hometown I would be

very curious to see if other people had heard it but my stepbrother had told this to me when I was younger and he said that there was

kind of out in like Terrell, Texas like East Texas there was a train tracks out there and if you took your car up to the

train tracks and you put it in neutral right on the train tracks it would start to

roll off of the train tracks and the trick was right before you did that

you were supposed to put like powder like talcum powder on your trunk and then your

car would roll off and then if you looked on the back you would see little hand prints in on the trunk because it's the ghosts of children who had 50 years ago on a night just like tonight

But their school bus was hit by a train
