Lore and Lingering Spirits. Haunted National Park Trails

Happy October, spooky season has started!

Bring all of your hiking gear, plenty of water, and a ghost meter. We are kicking off the season by traveling all over the country to different National Parks and hiking along their most haunted trails. Join us as we travel to Channel Islands NP and visit a ghost who claimed the island as his own and cursed the island as he died there.  Wear you best hiking shoes as we head onto the trails of Rocky Mountain NP where spirits and deadly legends reside. Feel the lake shore breeze in your hair as we travel in the same footsteps as Diana of the Dunes, a feminist and conservationist, that never left the place she fought to protect. Come with us as we head down a trail in the Grand Canyon with no water sources, 1000 foot cliff drops and over 100 ghosts that walk the area. Keep your family and children close as we discover the darkest native lore that live within the deep forests of the Great Smoky Mountains.

NPAD is featured on @Stitcher's second annual True Crime Week. You can listen to our show and all the other True Crime Week podcasts on the Stitcher app or at stitcher.com/discover #StitcherTrueCrimeWeek
