Do you like a good scary story? Us, too! You're gonna feel right at home with us here at Ain't No Such Thing, our horror podcast. Each week, we explore the ghosts, haunts, monsters, and more urban & rural legends from across the world and across cultures, and we tell our own, original horror stories based on those legends! Our stories are narrated in Southern style by illustrator and comic artist Amanda Rachels and are accompanied by episodes including commentary and analysis by Amanda, host Jessica Hinds, and writer Kevin LaPorte.
Consider the strange and varied circumstances of the 19th Century legend of the Coosa River Monster, a uniquely northeastern Alabama occurrence that was never quite what it appeared...and it appeared many times over those long-lost decades to bring tall tales - and even word of a curse - to the darkened woods of the 1800's.
All that, plus our spoiler-ridden review for the new horror film, Pearl, and a full breakdown o...
