Deep in the rugged mountains of Nicholas County, West Virginia, an old creek crossing known as the Ghost Ford has been the subject of a particularly unusual haunting for generations. According to local legend, travelers making their way along the lonely road near Panther Mountain have encountered a mysterious red dog that appears out of nowhere, its enormous body glowing in the darkness as it floats several feet above the ground. Some have even claimed that the strange creature follows them along the road before suddenly disappearing near the water's edge. But what exactly is this ghostly animal, and why has its presence been associated with this isolated stretch of Appalachian countryside for more than a century?Want to Listen to Southern Gothic Ad-Free?
