I'm proud to announce that the new issue of the Legends and Lore of Illinois is here! This issue concerns Lakey's Creek. Lakey's Creek has the dubious honor of being home to Illinois' very own headless horseman; the ghost of Lakey himself! Slain by an ax in the early 1800s (or so the story goes), Lakey's ghost has terrified travelers along this road for over a century. Is there any truth to this legend? Download the issue to find out!
Meanwhile, The Fallen have journeyed down to Southern Illinois to investigate the reports of a headless horseman. With the trail of the astral portal gone cold, they are looking for new leads. Perhaps the horseman himself will show them the way!
This issue contains a new feature: a book review! In each new issue, I will review a book on ghosts or the paranormal that I think you will find interesting. In this issue, I review Deborah Blum's Ghost Hunters. To view or download the issue, click on the cover below, or simply go to www.blackoakmedia.org/legendsandlore.html
