Urband Legends In North Carolina
Hey everyone this is my first book ever. This book is about the Urban Legends that I grew up to here in North Carolina. They have been past down for centuries from our mountains, to our piedmonts, down to our coast. So I would love to tell you the stories to you guys. Some of these have been told and seen by witnesses and some are just folklore. You don't have to believe in them. I hope I don't scare you guys to much. So please enjoy my first book and my states legends.Concluida
Whispers of the Highlands: Appalachian Folklore and Superstitions
The Appalachian region, rich in both natural beauty and cultural heritage, serves as a tapestry woven from diverse threads of history, folklore, and tradition. The landscape itself shapes the stories told within its valleys and peaks. From the rolling hills to the dense forests, the geography has not only influenced settlement patterns but also the development of unique cultural practices. The isolation offered by the mountains allowed communities to flourish independently, preserving their distinct traditions, stories, and superstitions that have been passed down through generations.

What creeps in the woods
Life for Micah Wilson was nothing but normal. She went to school and partied with her friends, her friends who weren't considered the normal ones of the school, and were often called the freaks and weird kids of the school. But compared to everything else, life was normal. Aside from the fact that Micah had a way of always finding herself on the wrong side of the mean girls, she had little to complain about. Unfortunately for Micah, she had always had a strange habit of crossing paths with one Davy Henderson who was considered the goddess of the school. Stepping on Davy's toes could land one into the worst crossfire's between social suicide and life and death, and when Micah crossed that line, neither hers or Davy's life would ever be the same. All Davy Henderson wanted was to teach the freak of Moon Hill High a lesson, and one that she would never forget. Davy wasn't one to let simple things slide, and when Micah practically embarrassed her in front of her boyfriend and the entire school, Davy knew she couldn't let it slide. So taking matters into her own hands she did just that. Playing one small prank on a freak that no one liked wasn't what Davy ever expected it to be, and when she and a couple of her friends lured Micah out, and took her into the woods just off the coast of town, neither of them expected to be attacked by wild animals that were out for blood. With the wild animals attacking and people dying neither of them expected to be handed off to two of the wolves and forced to participate in one of their traditional mating rituals. Now with no choice both girls will have to adjust to the live of the wild and they will have to deal with two of men that they would never otherwise deal with. Find out what lies ahead for these two humans in a dog eat dog world.
