Tonight, across America, countless people will embark on an adventure. They will prowl among overgrown headstones in forgotten graveyards, stalk through darkened woods and wildlands, and creep down the crumbling corridors of abandoned buildings. They have set forth in search of a profound paranormal experience and may seem to achieve just that. They are part of the growing cultural phenomenon called legend tripping. In If You Should Go at Midnight: Legends and Legend Tripping in America, author Jeffrey S. Debies-Carl guides readers through an exploration of legend tripping, drawing on years of scholarship, documentary accounts, and his own extensive fieldwork. Poring over old reports and legends, sleeping in haunted inns, and trekking through wilderness full of cannibal mutants and strange beasts, Debies-Carl provides an in-depth analysis of this practice that has long fascinated scholars yet remains a mystery to many observers. Debies-Carl argues that legend trips are important social practices. Unlike traditional rites of passage, they reflect the modern world, revealing both its problems and its virtues. In society as well as in legend tripping, there is ambiguity, conflict, crisis of meaning, and the substitution of debate for social consensus. Conversely, both emphasize individual agency and values, even in spiritual matters. While people still need meaningful and transformative experiences, authoritative, traditional institutions are less capable of providing them. Instead, legend trippers voluntarily search for individually meaningful experiences and actively participate in shaping and interpreting those experiences for themselves.

Wild People of the Woods By: Taylor Martin Taylor Martin returned to his childhood home in Missouri under the worst of circumstances. His father spent the last years of his life descending deeper and deeper into dementia, and Taylor had no choice but to be there for his dad, to take care of him, to take care of his mom, and to take care of the family farm. Even after his father passed, Taylor stayed right there and built a new life for himself, moving his family across the country and putting down roots at the old homestead, choosing to settle in to the simple, quiet country life. Or so he thought. Taylor soon had an encounter with creatures that terrified him, creatures that roamed the woods around his childhood home, sometimes appearing without warning, sometimes announcing their presence loudly as they crashed through the brush. Many know these behemoths as Bigfoots or Sasquatch, but over time, as Taylor learned to respect and even revere them, he came to know them as the Wild People of the Woods. Spanning decades and dozens upon dozens of encounters, Taylor's relationship with these beasts will enthrall you.
