Episode 360 - Lake Lanier’s Deadly Waters & Drowned History

Lake Lanier looks like the perfect summer escape—but beneath the surface, something is very, very wrong. In this episode, we revisit one of the most haunted and deadly lakes in America, where swimmers report invisible hands pulling them under, boats flip without warning, and an entire town sits frozen beneath the water. We first covered Lake Lanier nearly five years ago, focusing on the paranormal—but we missed something crucial. In this episode, we’re correcting that by diving into the erased history of Oscarville, a thriving Black community violently displaced and later buried beneath the lake. Watch the video version here. New Episodes are released every Thursday and Sunday at 12am PST/3am EST (the witching hour, of course). Corinne and Sabrina hand select a couple of paranormal encounters from our inbox to read in each episode, from demons, to cryptids, to aliens, to creepy kids... the list goes on and on.
