Mysterious Radio: Paranormal, UFO and Lore Interviews

Huntsville, Alabama is home to one of the creepiest urban legends in America—the haunting of Dead Children’s Playground. In this spine-tingling episode, author Dawn Crouch shares the inspiration behind her book Dead Children’s Playground, a story that blends urban legend, paranormal activity, and true crime suspense.

Her novel follows Arik, a medical student whose life takes a dark turn when he stumbles into a mystery surrounding Monte Sano caves and the serial killer said to dump his victims in Drost Park. As Arik follows the ghostly figure of a young girl carrying a lantern, he discovers a nightmare that thrusts him into a deadly investigation.
