The Boo Hag of Gullah Culture

This episode of Southern Gothic originally aired in April 2023. According to Gullah folklore, the swamps of the Lowcountry are home to a mythical creature who is said to sneak into the homes of its victims while they sleep and then suck the life force from their breath. The creature, known as the Boo Hag, is described as a large, hideous creature with no skin and glowing red eyes. It is said to be able to change its shape, making it difficult to track or identify. The Boo Hag is also said to be very strong and can easily overpower its victims. Join us as we explore this infamous creature, the culture that spawned it, and, of course, the ways you can protect yourself from it! Want to Listen to Southern Gothic Ad-Free?
