This week, Samantha shares the tale of the Black Widow of Hazel Green. The facts may have been hard to come by, but the story is certainly interesting. One thing is for certain: 6 times a widow was definitely uncommon at the time (is it really any different today??) and more than enough reason for gossip and drama…and there’s plenty of both in this episode!The Black Widow of Hazel Green, by Stanley J St. ClairWicked North Alabama, by Jacquelyn Procter

Episode 7: Giggling Granny

Reaper Tales ·

2022/06/24

This week we are talking about Nannie Doss, AKA the “Giggling Granny.” A romantic at heart, nothing could deter her from seeking her one true soul mate…even the 5 husbands that just didn’t fit the bill. She probably had more monikers than anyone we’ve researched so far and most definitely had an interesting story to tell.

Episode 2: Alabama Caverns

Reaper Tales ·

2022/05/27

This episode is different from most, but no less interesting. With plenty of stories of illegal activities and a little about ghosts/hauntings. Three of Alabama's most famous caves (Shelta, Bangor, and DeSoto) were all, at one point, Speakeasy's. They each have their own histories, challenges, and endings. Samantha is going to go through each one with all the details she could "dig up".
