ABOUT THIS EPISODE
(RABBIT HOLE) Three disturbing stories from the coal mines of West Virginia.
A miner riding alone into the mine realizes someone else is standing inside the cage with him — a dead man carrying his own severed head.
Another worker stops for two miners waiting beside the tracks, only to find the car empty except for the lanterns they were carrying.
And a young miner follows a strange blue flame deeper underground, where he hears the voice of his dead father calling his name.
These stories come from old Appalachian mining folklore collected from the communities that worked beneath those mountains.
Featuring Big John, Section South Main, and The Blue Flame.
♥️ Good luck sleeping tonight. 🪓

My best friend had been jealous of my life for years.
Then she invited me to spend a weekend at her family’s remote cabin.
At first, everything felt normal. But during a hike into the woods, I realized she had been taking pieces of me, my hair, a missing earring, even my full name written down, and…
