    Have you ever felt the chill of a ghostly legend creep up your spine as you walk along a historic shoreline? That's exactly what happened to us, Brandi and John, as we strolled through Delaware's coastal enigmas and unearthed tales that have lingered since colonial times. Our latest episode takes you to the haunted landscapes of Cape Henlopen State Park, where the mysterious Corpse Lights flicker, and to the site where a cursed wedding led to tales of spectral shipwrecks. Together, we ponder the strange disappearance of a historical lighthouse, possibly claimed by that very curse, and reflect on the eerie similarities with the evolving shores of Myrtle Beach. Brace yourself for a journey into the heart of Maryland and Delaware's coastal mysteries, where even a leisurely beach walk can lead to a bone-chilling discovery—quite literally. We share our personal encounter with remnants of shipwrecks and lost settlers buried beneath the sands. The conversation takes a gusty turn as we recall the raw intensity of nor'easters, their names as memorable as their fury. Closing the chapter on Delaware, we recount spine-tingling sightings of otherworldly figures, setting us up for a seamless segue into Maryland's own tapestry of history and folklore. Join us, if you dare, and experience the haunts and legends that echo through these storied shores.
