“In every single town I traveled to, I’d go out of my way to find a local bookstore or gift shop and pick up a book on local tall tales and legends. Some of these books are ghost stories. Some are about monsters. Other are about local characters who did horrible things or miraculous things or were just so weird people can’t stop talking about them. I remember doing an interview during those MTV years and explaining this practice. I told the reporter that I wanted to be able to drive cross-country with my kids and have a story for every single stop we made.”
