Or, and hear me out, that's all bullshit carried over from a time when people still burned witches.
Just saying, it makes no sense for all the scary shit to be isolated in the most easily accessible mountain range in the U.S. yet you never hear people treat the Rocky's with the same mysticism.

Almost every place has its own myths.
Idk if that carries over to modern perception of the place - nobody every talks about Four Corners being spooky.
I haven't been all over that area, but at night when there's nearly nobody on the road it does have a feel to it.
I'm just saying there's a different vibe to the fears people have of the region, and by saying the Rocky mountains don't have the same vibe you kinda proved my point.
No, I'm saying people who live in the Rocky mountains aren't as superstitious as those who live in the Appalachian mountains.
Ah, the traditionally (and mildly classist and racist) assumption that people out west are somehow mentally superior and more educated, while the people in Appalachia are poor dumb hicks.
Funny how culture shapes our perspectives, innit
Superstition is superstition - you can try to paint this as a class thing but ultimately ghosts aren't fucking real. Seems like one part of the country gets that, the other doesn't.
