    Plat-Eyes and Boo Hags: Creepy Folklore of the Lowcountry of Georgia and South Carolina | Scary Stories
    Feb 24 2026
    The Gullah Geechee are descendants of West and Central Africans enslaved on the Sea Islands and coastal plantations. Isolated in these regions, they preserved a unique creole language and a rich spiritual folklore. For a long time, any ghostly apparition or sinister spirit in the Lowcountry was simply called a "haint," a term for haunt or ghost. But over time, people realised not all haints were the same. Gullah lore eventually classified the evil spirits into two categories: plat-eyes and boo-hags.The BOOKBY US A COFFEEJoin Sarah's new FACEBOOK GROUPSubscribe to our PATREONEMAIL us your storiesJoin us on INSTAGRAMJoin us on TWITTERJoin us on FACEBOOKVisit our WEBSITEResearch Links:https://genteelandbard.com/southern-history-haunts-folklore-journal/boo-hags-plat-eyeshttps://www.blacksouthernbelle.com/www-blacksouthernbelle-com-gullah-geechee-folk-rituals-hoodoo-voodoo-and-conjuringhttps://www.monstropedia.org/index.php/Plat-eyehttps://www.reddit.com/r/dogman/comments/1dz4act/i_learned_something_new_and_i_want_to_talk_abouthttps://charlestonterrors.com/boo-hags-haint-blue-vampires-of-the-lowcountry-the-paint-that-stops-them/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boo_haghttps://www.reddit.com/r/Paranormal/comments/ufxm0g/old_hag_sleep_paralysis_about_7_years_agoThanks so much for listening, and we'll catch up with you again on Thursday.Sarah and Tobie xx"Spacial Winds," Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licenced under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 Licencehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/SURVEY Hosted on Acast.

I tuned in out of curiosity, just a little bedtime scary before I sleep. Calmly and beautifully orated stories of real life scares and folklore history by Sarah hooks you in and then the introduction of her son Tobias and their frank and humourous banter about the story told. This is well researched folklore, eerie short stories or experiences shared and a delightful conversation with mother and son. Brilliant listening.

Pure magic, mystery, scary and humor
