Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Deep Woods of Dudleytown takes place in the Connecticut forest, not far from the charming town of Cornwall, under the shadow of three mountains: Bald, Woodbury, and Coltsfoot. Once a tiny but thriving village of farmers who brought their families from England to settle there, the land known as Dudleytown is now a deserted ghost town, nothing but cellar holes and overgrown weeds where homes once stood. One autumn day, a boy sets out on a journey to find the place where made-myths and legends hide. During his hike along Dark Entry Path, he is taunted by the strange Creature-man, but he is soon rescued by a young girl who takes him to a cave deep in the forest. However, what he finds there is a secret more mysterious than the restless spirits that haunt the woods. Beyond the shadows of Dudleytown is a haunting tale of childhood memories, family, courage, and everlasting love.

Book excerpt: In the 18th century, members of the Dudley family settled in the deep woods of the Dark Entry Forest in northwestern Connecticut. Only a century later, Dudleytown was a ghost town with nothing left in the encroaching forest but cellar holes. Legend has it that the Dudleys were descended from a family in England that came to a bad end and that a curse followed them to America, a curse that drove residents of the settlement to murder and suicide. In 1989, Sandy Lawrence, fleeing her abusive boyfriend, is given the use of her friend's house in Dark Entry, one of the few homes in the isolated forest. She is unaware of the legends about Dark Entry but soon discovers the horrifying truth-something evil is alive and well in the deep woods, something intent upon murder. What began as a peaceful retreat from her domestic troubles now becomes a terrifying fight for her life.

Download or read book If You Should Go at Midnight written by Jeffrey S. Debies-Carl and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2023-04-21 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tonight, across America, countless people will embark on an adventure. They will prowl among overgrown headstones in forgotten graveyards, stalk through darkened woods and wildlands, and creep down the crumbling corridors of abandoned buildings. They have set forth in search of a profound paranormal experience and may seem to achieve just that. They are part of the growing cultural phenomenon called legend tripping. In If You Should Go at Midnight: Legends and Legend Tripping in America, author Jeffrey S. Debies-Carl guides readers through an exploration of legend tripping, drawing on years of scholarship, documentary accounts, and his own extensive fieldwork. Poring over old reports and legends, sleeping in haunted inns, and trekking through wilderness full of cannibal mutants and strange beasts, Debies-Carl provides an in-depth analysis of this practice that has long fascinated scholars yet remains a mystery to many observers. Debies-Carl argues that legend trips are important social practices. Unlike traditional rites of passage, they reflect the modern world, revealing both its problems and its virtues. In society as well as in legend tripping, there is ambiguity, conflict, crisis of meaning, and the substitution of debate for social consensus. Conversely, both emphasize individual agency and values, even in spiritual matters. While people still need meaningful and transformative experiences, authoritative, traditional institutions are less capable of providing them. Instead, legend trippers voluntarily search for individually meaningful experiences and actively participate in shaping and interpreting those experiences for themselves.
