The Alien, the Witch and the Wardrobe

The Muscogee Queer drag show on Oct. 24 had it all: a phenomenal “Rocketman,” a terrifyingly cute green alien, and a gorgeous witch of a host who threatened to stomp us if we got a little too handsy. It was chaotic, deeply affectionate, and was the perfect reminder of why the Muscogee Queer community is so special.

Haunted Fort Benning: a new book explores the post's spookiest stories

How does an author who doesn’t believe in ghosts write a book about the haunted history of Fort Benning? Bridgett Sharp Siter ’s newest book, “ Haunted Fort Benning : Murder, Mystery and Mayhem on the South’s Most Colorful Army Post,” explores the area’s eerie past and retells stories about haunted porches, wandering spirits and murders that were never solved. Siter spoke to the Ledger-Enquirer about her time at Fort Benning, how she became a ghost storyteller who doesn’t believe in ghosts, and how all these stories made it into her book. For more than two decades, Siter worked at Fort Benning in the Morale, Wellness and Recreation (MWR) Department before moving to the Maneuver Capability Development Integration Directorate (M-CDID) in 2019. She started, however, as a part-time reporter at the Fort Benning Bayonet, and her editor tasked her with finding ghost stories for an October issue. She wasn’t thrilled. “I am a super skeptic,” she said. But, although she doesn’t necessarily believe in them all, she loves to tell stories. “I’m a storyteller who loves history,” Siter said. “I’m quick to say I’m not a historian.” Col. John Tate and the Kashita warriors Siter then stumbled onto Col. John
