A BOO HAG RIDING HIS LITTLE BIRDY
A Lowcountry Root-Magic Horror Romance
Some legends are told to scare children.
Others are told to warn adults.
Deep in the shadowed marshes of the South Carolina Lowcountry, where Spanish moss sways like ghosts in the moonlight and ancient secrets sleep beneath the tides, an old story refuses to die.
The story of the Boo Hag.
A shape-shifting spirit.
A night rider.
A creature said to steal breath, ride souls, and slip through the darkness searching for its next victim.
Most people believe the Boo Hag is only a folktale.
They are wrong.
When strange dreams, unexplained disappearances, and supernatural encounters begin haunting the Holy City of Charleston and the Sea Islands, an unlikely journey unfolds—one that blurs the line between folklore and reality, love and terror, destiny and danger.
At the center of the mystery is a strange little bird.
A bird that knows secrets.
A bird that remembers.
A bird carrying a connection to an ancient power older than the city itself.
As hidden truths emerge from forgotten cemeteries, moss-covered oak groves, Gullah Geechee traditions, root-magic practices, and generations of whispered warnings, the hunt begins to uncover the true nature of the Boo Hag before it is too late.
But some legends do not want to be discovered.
And some spirits do not want to be forgotten.
Part supernatural thriller.
Part Southern Gothic horror.
Part Gullah Geechee folklore adventure.
A Boo Hag Riding His Little Birdy is a haunting journey into one of the most mysterious legends of the American South.
Perfect for readers who love:
- Gullah Geechee folklore
- Southern Gothic fiction
- Paranormal mysteries
- Root-magic and Hoodoo legends
- Charleston ghost stories

The marsh is watching.
The bird is waiting.
And tonight...
The Boo Hag rides.

Enter the world of the Boo Hag... if you dare.
