Episode 137 introduces Morticia to the show. We'll look at where she's from and where she wants to go.


And we may start with one of the original legend trips. With the publication of Haunted Southwest Florida, Christopher Balzano hit the road for a little promo work and found the Singing Manatee has dramatically changed its geography and dad has come to rest in Oak Ridge.

The Trippers will explore how changing the details changes the haunt...and the haunted legend.

Need to catch up? Here are some of the episodes we did to get all the details.

Episode 136 of Tripping on Legends is now up…and slowly walking down a dark and lonely road.

https://sites.libsyn.com/446781/episode-136this-redhead-aint-hitchin

The Redheaded Hitchhiker of Route 44 has become one of the most well-known ghost stories in New England...or is he the Redheaded Phantom...or does it matter?

A strange thing happened on the way to Volco Road. The name of Big Red came up, as he always does when there's a lonesome road and a ghost walking. What began as a journey to find when his name changed became a whole new crossroads.

Join us as we look into the misnomer that created a phenom and how wandering ghosts started to look for rides and get in cars.

Look into the details of the stories we discussed in the books we got them from:

Knee deep in research for a multi-episode exploration of hitchhiker legends. I’m not saying much because I don’t want to muddy responses.

Other than Big Red over here, what are your local versions? The more local to you the better.
