We are back with our tour of the Eerie USA this week after a little pit stop last. Today we’re going to be looking at the State of Georgia. After trolling for the creepiest urban legends, I found a whopper of one. We’re talking about Lake Lanier, the man-made reservoir sprawls an enormous distance, and was stricken with issues right out of the gate.
From trouble funding the project, to having various states squabbling over the use of it, everything just seemed to be cursed. Eventually, after moving over 250 families, several cemeteries and their corpses (which, you know, is never a bad idea…), and essentially burying entire towns, strange things began to happen, as if that wasn’t strange enough.
An extraordinary amount of people have either gone missing, drown, or even died in other ways (I’m looking at you murder) in and around Lake Lanier. Is the lake actually cursed, or is it just a popular place for people to visit, thus experiencing more accidents and deaths simply because of said number of visits? These are all questions I’ll hope to answer in one way or another, and you’ll have to listen to the cast to get them!
