Hear 'Haint Tales' from a Master Storyteller at McCracken County Library

octaviasexton.com

A "haint" is an old-fashioned Appalachian mountain term for "haunt" and can be anything from Bigfoot in the woods to a ghost in the house. On Sounds Good, East Kentucky Master Storyteller Octavia Sexton previews next week's "Haint Tales" presentation at the McCracken County Public Library with a hair-raising story about "Raw Head and Bloody Bones," first told to her by her grandfather.

Hear more "Haint Tales," some even scarier, at McCracken County Public Library's Evening Upstairs on October 23, at 7 p.m. Admission is free.
