For the past fifteen years, we’ve spent—literally—hundreds of weekends exploring every corner of these United States. While we usually land at a Highlands games or Celtic festival (we’re silversmiths during the day hours), we find the journey can be more exciting that the destination.
Every time we see a rural street sign that says Cemetery Road, my skin pricks. Passing an abandoned house in the backwoods of Kentucky? We get the urge to stop and explore. Catch a glimpse of a few old family grave markers hidden on the side of a rural route? Yup, we are making a U-turn.
Over the years we’ve cultivated a wide group of friends that share our interests and our fascination with the hidden side of history. We all love to discuss our favorite haunts and our newest hollows. Adventuring is fun, but sharing is even better.
Forgotten family graves, abandoned burial sites, true crime scenes, paranormal encounters, historic mysteries — they are all out there, if you know where to look. If you find yourself looking down the dark path and thinking “Could be fun,” then you’ve found your tribe.
Take a look around, top off your tank, and let’s get lost together.
A lifelong lover of the darker side of history, William Ashe grew up on the legends and folk tales of his family’s Scottish and Scandinavian heritage. This evolved into an interest in urban myths, true crime, and abandoned places. Few things pique his interest more than an old dirt road that leads to a forgotten cemetery, a ramshackle homestead, or the promise of an unexpected adventure. The Haunts & Hollows series shares these adventures with like-minded souls who find joy in the journey.
When home, Liam is a silversmith and jewelry expert focusing on Celtic sterling, antique Scottish, and Victorian mourning collections. Most weekends you can find him at a Highlands games, Scottish festival, or comic con all along the East Coast of the US.
In his free time, he is the author of several series, including mysteries featuring professional researcher and historian Elle Cunningham Mackay and the Arca Noctis series of thrillers starring curiosity store owner Emery Vaughn.
Like many Southern writers, Aria Cain grew up amidst the silent crossroads and forgotten corners of backwater America. A recluse by nature, she found her voice in the haint tales and ghost stories of Appalachian folklore.
For several years she has worked as a folklore researcher. She finds life in this oral heritage and works to preserve and share it. Some readers may recognize threads from these stories woven throughout her books.
Aria is the author of several Gothic horror books, stories, and series, many centered on the empty streets and abandoned trailers of fictional Cull County, Georgia.
