Summary

Urban legends are the folklore of America.  Many of these legends begin with truth, but they change and grow through the years as people share the stories.  One such story is the legend of Black Aggie that has its origins in the Druid Ridge Cemetery.  Could a simple cemetery statuary be cursed?  Is someone reaching out from the afterlife?  And why in the world do crazy humans challenge each other to test the spirits, the unexplained or whatever?  Who is Black Aggie and what is its legend?  Diane and Denise take the listener through the history and into the legend...don't say Black Aggie three times at midnight!  Moment in Oddity features the Philadelphia Experiment and This Day in History features the lighting of Pall Mall by gas light for first time.
