Episode Description
Host Justin Wood invites listeners into Midnight Dreary for a chilling tale rooted in real Southern folklore. Inspired by the eerie death-mask tombstones of Mt. Nebo Cemetery in Carlton, Alabama, this short story recounts the unsolved massacre of the Sutter family — their headless bodies buried in Hickory Hollow, their restless spirits still searching for peace.
For generations, travelers have whispered of glowing faces drifting among the hickories, a haunting reminder of the tragedy left unsolved. When a group of teenagers dares to investigate, they discover that the legends are far more than old stories. In Hickory Hollow, the dead are waiting… and some mysteries refuse to stay buried.
