The blue was thought to attract them because it looked like the sky. Instead they would become trapped and burned away when the sun came up. So people in Appalachia would use the color Haint Blue to protect themselves. Have you ever seen or heard of Haint blue? ##HaintBlue##haint##Appalachia101##Appalachianfolklo
