When police arrived, the 4 year old girl told police that her family was dead saying βMommy is shot and grandpa and grandmaβ. Later that day police arrived at the home of Roy Napier, a trailer located on Stipps Road to find a very shocking murder scene.

To quote Graham Seal, βNed Kelly has progressed from outlaw to national hero in a century, and to international icon in a further 20 years. The still-enigmatic, slightly saturnine and ever ambivalent bushranger is the undisputed, if not universally admired, national symbol of Australia. β¦ [T]he figure of Ned Kelly has led to the creation of a national image that bears some relation to the man himselfβperhaps about the same resemblance as Ned Kelly's armour had to the plough mouldboards from which it was beaten....He is different things to different peopleβa murderer, an Australian Robin Hood, a social bandit, a revolutionary leader, even a commercial commodity. But to most of us he is somehow essentially Australian.β

We discuss three lesser known Appalachian myths and legends.
Flatwoods Monster
On September 12th, 1952, at around 7:15 pm, two brothers, Edward, 13, and Fred, 12, May, and their friend Tommy Hyer (10), saw a pulsing red light cross the sky and land on the property of G. Bailey Fisher, a local Farmer. The events that followed would go down in West Virginian folklore.
The Moon-Eyed People
The Moon-eyed people are a group of people who are said to have lived in Appalachia until the Cherokee people chased them away - though I will say that Iβve also seen that it was the Muscogee (Muh-skoh-gee) people who fought the Moon-Eyed People and chased them out. Itβs said that they were short, bearded white-skinned people with blue eyes. Benjamin Smith Barton said in a 1797 book, that theyβre known as βmoon-eyedβ because they couldnβt see very well during the day. Stories about this mysterious race of people are said to have originated in parts of Tennessee, Georgia, and North Carolina, however the true origins of the Moon-Eyed people are debated to this day.
Squonk
The Squonk (scientific name Lacrimacorpus dissolvens) is a folk loric creature reputed to live in the Hemlock forest of northern Pennsylvania.
