A third-generation orchard hand in Pennsylvania Dutch country finds apple cores lined up in perfect rows on his press-room floor — and something in the old trees whistling his dead grandfather's song, hitch and all. Ellis traces the real folklore: the Albatwitch of the Susquehanna river hills, the Victorian picnic raids, and the thirteenth annual festival that just leaned into the unlucky number. An original folk-horror story for listeners who like their cryptids small, quick, and learning. Fiction; the folklore it draws on is real and still celebrated.

A night-shift clerk at a lonely desert convenience store gets the same customer three nights in a row — tall, wrong-jointed, and on the third night speaking in her dead brother's voice. Ellis sits down with her for the full interview. A skinwalker story about the thing that wants you to open the door yourself — scary stories and folk horror from Whispers in the Vale, a horror podcast. Fiction; the Diné beliefs it draws on are real and still held.

A box of cassette tapes arrives with no return address — a farmer's night recordings from the hill country of western Maryland, where the goats go quiet all at once and a whistle sounds like a train on tracks that do not exist. Ellis reconstructs the tapes: the bloodless goat on the ridge, the star painted over on the barn, and the night the thing on the roof stopped at the edge of fresh paint. An original folk-horror story built around the real Snallygaster reports, for listeners who like their scary stories tall and their woods empty. Fiction, told true.
