Summary

Chickamauga, Georgia, is widely known for its brutal Civil War battlefield, but the stories don’t end there. Southern Shadows, founded by our guest, Courtney McInvale, explores the unexplained activity woven throughout the town itself—places where daily life unfolded alongside war, loss, and survival.

The Battle of Chickamauga left tens of thousands of soldiers dead or wounded, and the surrounding area was transformed into a network of field hospitals, rail routes, and burial grounds. In this episode, Courtney explains why that history still seems to echo today, sharing reports of phantom soldiers, unexplained sounds, and encounters tied to locations far beyond the battlefield.

We explore how Southern Shadows was created specifically to tell these stories—walking guests through locations where history and the unexplained still collide. For some places, time doesn’t heal everything… and Chickamauga may be proof of that.
