Description
"It is widely believed that that the Gullah, also know as the Geechee, painted their porch ceiling, doors and window trim the soft blue-green to ward off the haints. Haints, or haunts, are spirits trapped between the world of the living and the world of the dead. These are not your quiet, floaty, sorrowful ghosts, they are the kind you don’t want to mess with, and the kind you certainly don’t want invading into your humble abode looking for revenge."
