What's Your Story? | The Road to Nerdoween 2026

Every town has a story.

A haunted house. A road you don’t drive at night. A bridge everybody knows something happened on.

Nate grew up five minutes from one.

Years ago, he and some friends went looking for the ghosts of Richardsville Road Bridge and what happened that night is still a little hard to explain. But digging into that old hometown legend uncovered an even stranger rabbit hole about where our ghost stories come from, how they travel, and why the version you grew up with might not have started anywhere near home.

Consider this your first taste of Nerdoween 2026.

And this year, we want your stories around the campfire.
