Where the Witches Never Burned: Haunting Traditions of the Deep South
Manage episode 513129714 series 3682805
In this haunting All Hallows’ episode, we drift beneath the Spanish moss and into the forgotten corners of Florida’s witch lore — where the women were healers, not heretics, and their magic lingered quietly in the humid night air. From the whispered legends of St. Augustine’s “brujas” to the mysterious Witch’s Grave of Tallahassee, we uncover how the Deep South kept its witchcraft alive through reverence, ritual, and memory.
Then, we trace how old Southern customs — porch lights for the dead, silent suppers, bonfires, and carved pumpkins — grew into the Halloween we know today. It’s a journey through shadowed history and candlelit tradition, where every ghost story is really an act of remembrance.
Light your candle, sweep your porch, and settle in — we’re calling up the haunting magic of the South tonight.
