Halloween cries out like a banshee for scary stories and there are many traditional and modern Native narratives that fit the bill. Today on Native America Calling, Shawn Spruce hears some favorite stories for the season and checks in on folks whose experiences will give you goosebumps with storyteller Leeora White (Seneca); Lopaka Kapanui (Kanaka Maoli), storyteller, author, and founder of the ghost tour “Mysteries of Hawaii“; Nancy Fields (Lumbee), director and curator at The Museum of the Southeast American Indian; and Ishmael Hope (Tlingit and Inupiaq), poet, storyteller, and Indigenous scholar.
