Carolina Haunts: Legends & Lore from the Old North State
Episode 4 – The Devil’s Tramping Ground (Chatham County, NC)
Deep in the woods of Chatham County, North Carolina, lies a mysterious barren circle where nothing grows. Animals refuse to cross it. Campers say their belongings move overnight. And for more than two hundred years, locals have whispered the same chilling tale…
They call it The Devil’s Tramping Ground.
Legend says the Devil himself rises from the underworld each night to pace that circle, plotting mischief for the world above. The ground is scorched bare from his footsteps, cursed so that no life will ever grow there again.
Join Dawn Mac as she steps into one of North Carolina’s oldest and eeriest legends — a tale of mystery, fear, and folklore that has haunted generations in the Old North State.
