Dark Corners of the Old Dominion

What''s so scary about Virginia?

From Edgar Allan Poe''s Ragged Mountains to the shores of Tidewater''s Seven Cities...

From the blood-soaked battlegrounds of the Civil War to the shadowy political arena of the D.C. Beltway...

We have four hundred years'' worth of ghost stories, folk horrors, small-town terrors, urban legends, backwoods beasts, otherworldly secrets, and down-home Southern Gothic.

Within this idyllic landscape, there are many dark corners. Within these pages, Virginia authors explore twenty-three dangerous destinations, myths, and monsters from the Commonwealth''s past, present, and future. Read on, if you dare.
