Howdy folks, and welcome back to our journey across the United States. Today we're covering the strange folklore and lore associated with Tennessee- my home state, and a state with lore deeper than I could ever hope to cover in a single video - that's why we're back with volume 2. Tennessee has... strange stuff in it to say the least. Creatures that scream in the middle of the night, races that cover nearly unfathomable terrain and distances, and chicken that is rather hot. Beyond this, there are ghosts and ghouls aplenty Whether you're in Nashville, Memphis, Chattanooga, or Knoxville I'll be going over a bit of lore near you so sit back, relax, and enjoy this video on Tennessee's Weird Folklore!

Howdy folks, and welcome back to our journey across the United States. Today we're covering the strange folklore and lore associated with Texas - a state that in man ways is a gateway to western America - alongside nearby states like Oklahoma. Texas has strange things - ghosts that we'll cover in a video in a few weeks but also strange creatures, cryptids, and supposed legends of civilizations once established by giants underneath Texas's cities and towns. Whether it by Houston, Llano, Aurora, Abilene, Amarillo, or anywhere in between, everything is certainly bigger in Texas - and this video's a little bigger because of it. With that, sit back, relax, and enjoy this video on Texas's Weird Folklore!
