Summary

In honor of our upcoming Friday the 13th Ghost Tour next week, we bring you a special episode of Southern Gothic, featuring a live recording from our October 2024 event at InDo Nashville. Accompanied by the haunting guitar melodies of Alexandra Mann from The Mann Sisters, Brandon delves into four chilling tales from the American South: Samuel Jocelyn Jr. – A Wilmington man buried alive in 1810, whose restless spirit is said to haunt St. James Episcopal Parish Cemetery. Julia Brown of Manchac Swamp – A voodoo priestess whose ominous prophecy allegedly brought about a devastating hurricane on the day of her funeral in 1915. Leah Smock, the Battletown Witch – A young Kentucky woman accused of witchcraft and tragically burned alive in 1840, her story now commemorated in local folklore. Julia Legare of Edisto Island – A South Carolina woman mistakenly buried alive, whose spirit is believed to keep the door of her mausoleum perpetually open. Join us for THIRTEEN, a haunted history walking tour in Franklin, Tennessee, on Friday the 13th. This intimate experience is limited to 13 guests and promises an evening of spine-tingling tales and historical intrigue. Secure your spot at SouthernGothicMedia.com/thirteen.
