Campfire Tales of the Adirondack North Country

Savage Turkey Productions

Cemeteries hint of the strange & unusual

When people gather around a campfire, the talk often turns to the strange and unusual--to tales of myths and legends designed to give goose bumps to the unwary listener. The campfire may take the chill out of the night air--but if the stories ring true, the light of the fire might be just the thing to breathe unearthly life into the shadows that stir nearby.


Hauntings, Executions, Mysteries

Every castle has their ghosts

Campfire Tales of the Adirondack North Country is a collection of just such stories as told by the people who investigated them. Campfire Tales captures the mystique and history of the North Country by documenting the tales and legends of the area including hauntings, executions, and mysteries that have been passed down from generation to generation around the campfire.

When people gather around a campfire, the talk often turns to the strange and unusual--to tales of myths and legends designed to give goose bumps to the unwary listener.
