01: The Gray Friend of Pang Yang

Welcome to SCARE QUOTES, a show about quotes that might scare you. Join us, your eerie emcees (Margaret and Jeffrey), as we gaze unflinchingly at the public record to uncover strange stories of the paranormal. In our premiere episode, we investigate accounts of the "Gray Lady" of Pang Yang in Ulster County, NY. What begins with a legend about the ghost of an 18th century prophetess soon spirals into a shambles of conflicting sources. How can a nonbinary icon, corpses stored in basements and attics, herbal witchcraft, uncouth hillbillies who live like prairie dogs, a haunted portrait of Ed McMahon in an Elvira wig, a very becoming gray felt hat, and Margaret, The Mother of 1200 Criminals, possibly be connected? Stifle your gasps and listen in to find out.
