Show notes

Jonathan R. Davis: A man who became a folk hero, a vigilante, and an enigma. Davis’ story is one of grit, gunfights, and survival against incredible odds. Today, history and mystery collide as we dive into the legend of one of South Carolina’s most infamous prospectors and the time he fought off a group of bandits with a couple of pistols and a bowie knife. Also, we’ll head to the misty shores of Folly Beach, where the waves aren’t the only things that haunt this coastal paradise. And finally, I’ll read a chapter from the book Haunted South Carolina by Alan Brown titled "The Melancholy Return of Mary Fickling."

Show notes

The beautifully crafted Abbeville Opera House in the Upstate has been the home for many shows and performances since its opening in 1908. But according to many witnesses, some its ghosts seem to stick around for one final performance. Also, in a world full of true crime content, we all seem to know at least a little bit of trivia when it comes to serial killers. One of these killers seems to fly under the radar for the most part, but Junior Pierce was nothing short of a monster. And later, we’ve got a double-dose of haunted theaters in this episode. The Dock Street theater in Charleston has also had its fair share of tragedy since its opening and plenty of ghosts to go along with it.
