Sobre este título
They shed their skin at midnight and ride the sleeping...
In the shadowy corners of Louisiana's bayous, an ancient terror still prowls. The Boo Hag—a shapeshifting spirit that slips from its skin to torment the innocent—represents one of America's most enduring supernatural traditions, rooted in the profound spiritual heritage of enslaved Africans.
Anthropologist David G. Stone takes listeners on a haunting journey through centuries of hidden folklore, revealing how these malevolent spirits evolved from West African cosmology into distinctly American entities. Through gripping eyewitness accounts, historical documentation, and expert analysis, Shapeshifters and Skin Riders exposes the cultural DNA of a tradition that has survived slavery, segregation, and modernization.
From the bustling streets of New Orleans to isolated river parishes, Stone uncovers the protective rituals, terrifying encounters, and spiritual warfare that define Boo Hag folklore. This isn't just a collection of ghost stories—it's the untold history of cultural survival and the enduring power of ancestral memory.
Discover the supernatural legacy hiding in plain sight.
