Haunted Hocking Hills: Haunted Ohio Ghost Stories and Legends of Ohio's Most Haunted Wilderness
Step into the dark forests and sandstone caves of the Hocking Hills, where legends and ghost stories echo through every hollow. Haunted Hocking Hills collects more than sixty-five true Ohio ghost stories, haunted places, and folk legends rooted in verifiable history and oral tradition.
A ghost is said to follow hikers on the trail at Ash Cave, peering from behind the old beech trees. One night she joined a group of hikers, walking silently beside them before fading into the mist. She is only one of the many spirits that haunt the Hocking Hills.
Discover real haunted sites across southern Ohio, including:
Moonville Tunnel and the spectral engineer who walks its rails
Old Man's Cave and the mysterious hermit who gave it its name
Cedar Falls, where legends whisper through the gorge
Athens Asylum, one of Ohio's most haunted institutions
Bloody Horseshoe Grave, the tragic burial that bleeds through history
Dead Man Hollow, echoing with ghostly cries
Blue Flame Ghost of forgotten roads
Ghost of Simcoe Valley
Screaming Hollow and the Singing Children of the hills
Each story includes historical notes, photographs, and GPS coordinates so readers can trace the haunted hikes and explore these sites themselves.
Author and folklorist Jannette Quackenbush, creator of the Haunted Ohio & Ghost Hunter Guide series and The Big Book of American Ghost Stories, has spent over three decades researching authentic Ohio folklore and documenting hauntings of the Hocking Hills. Her work blends meticulous research, interviews, and field photography to uncover the true stories behind the legends. In addition to her writing and archival research, Quackenbush has led public hikes and field explorations focused on ghost and cryptid legends-most notably her Moonville Tunnel Night Hikes and Hiking Expeditions (Where the Natural World and the Supernatural World Collide(c)), which guide visitors through real haunted and creature-sighting locations.
If you're visiting the Hocking Hills, this is the ultimate companion for exploring its haunted caves, trails, and forgotten graveyards.
