Did you include the imps?A few years ago I used the word haint in a book I was writing. My story was set in the Louisiana during the Civil War. My editor tried to explain how most people wouldn't understand the word and could loose interest. I suggested a glossary for clarication and the term haint remained. I love a good ghost story.
Cut & Shoot ain't what it was when I was young. Nowadays famous for flea markets and speed trap but back in the day, it was wall to wall beer joints. Booze and hookers and gambling OH MY!
The older people that I was around as a child always referenced haints. My father had a sayin for something that was fast as runnin fastern a scared haint.A few years ago I used the word haint in a book I was writing.

Slick d—- out of a lard bucket.
Arkansas has some different ones for sure . Bald Knob , Marked Tree , Pocahontas
That is the truth! Except you forgot corn bread (corn pone), green beans cooked in lard, and Mr. TC likes raw peanuts. How 'bout homemade "recipe"? You know, for medicinal purposes - except it tastes like Mogen DavidY'all ain't got a clue . I live in Pisgah , if you know your Bible you'll know . I really live in Blow Gourd , which is just a rock throw from Lizard Lope . Up hway 71 is Rosalie and the next little community is Flat Rock . I have kin folks that live in Smut Eye which is down the road from Perote. Sweet tea , grits , fried okra , fried chicken, fried taters , heck I know folks who fry Oreos ! And I forgot my favorite snack : boiled peanuts
How bout Possum Trot. All the strange ones are up nawth in the yankee part of Arkansas. Something in the water up there.
Oh my, corn pone pie! My wife makes it with some larapin chili layered in. Heavenly!That is the truth!

I pretty much survive on granola bars when we're there. And we smuggle in beer & wine.
With cheese!!
in South Lousiana. It could also have been rougaru or tai-ti, depending what kind of boogeyman it was. put a gree gree on ya.A few years ago I used the word haint in a book I was writing. My story was set in the Louisiana during the Civil War.
I don't particularly care for cheese mixed with my vittles, nor my vittles mixed with cheese. I love cheese on its own merits. Same with bourbon
Good cheese stands on its own merits. Grocery store cheese goes in recipes.
Agreed. I wasn't considering grocery store cheese as real cheese.
Not as "dry" as it use to be , but sometimes it's smart to bring your own . My neighbor was a deacon at my church but mixed Jack , honey and lemon for cough syrup. Called me one night to see if I could go to the ABC store and get him a fifth. Neighbors always help neighbors in the south.That is the truth!
