Eerie Oklahoma
With a flash of green light, a portal opens up in the Beaver Dunes. But even the strangeness of another dimension struggles to compete with Oklahoma's hair-raising heritage. The woods still whisper of a woman with doe eyes and deadly hooves. Tulsa's ivy-covered Hex House remains haunted by the ghost of its infamously manipulative owner. From the traveling mummy of John Wilkes Booth to the grandma who seasoned plum cakes with arsenic, Heather Woodward explores the peculiar and petrifying portions of Oklahoma's past.

Born and raised in a small little town just outside of Tahlequah, I’m part Cherokee and I grew up hearing about everything I just read about.
Owls-
I was taught that if you saw it but didn’t hear it or vice versa then everything was okay but if you hear and see it, it means someone is going to die.
My Mama and Nan taught that if I hear an owl wether I seen it or not to tie my shirt in a knot and will choke the owl and make it quite hooting and fly away.
Little People-
The most important thing I was taught was to never talk about them and if you accidentally see one (no you didn’t). They love to take things and then bring them back (but in a place that you swear you checked like 10 different times)but only when you don’t need that item anymore.
They also will throw things at you if you see them.
The whole Octopus thing in the lake I personally don’t believe it.
The orb of light story is true and a little terrifying.
As of 2022 (I think) the Girl Scout murders case is closed but not solved, the DNA even though it was inconclusive they still say Gene Leroy Hart did it.(don’t quote me on that though)
Cherokee’s have a lot more lore then what was told in eerie Oklahoma so if you really want to scary yourself look up Cherokee lore at your own risk.

Editors and editing people. Just little facts that need to be corrected but it started off with stating that Oklahoma State University's mascot is Sooners. I do like the breakdown of her stories and they are better written/presented than other similar books that delve more into the history and not the scary/eerie.

Pretty good read! Learned a lot about the state that I didn't know before. I recommend it!
Though, I will say there were a few typos that sort of ruined my enjoyment of the book. If you can ignore those (and Greenwood mistyped as Greenfield in the first few pages), you'll find an interesting read.
