A forgotten coal town buried in the mountains of New Mexico. Two of the deadliest mining disasters in American history. Hundreds of white iron crosses standing alone in the desert. And after the company bulldozed the town into oblivion, the miners may have refused to leave. Tonight, we explore the haunted ruins of Dawson, New Mexico, where ghostly headlamps still drift through the cemetery and whispers in Italian, Greek, and Spanish ride the wind through the valley.   HAH DISCORD - https://discord.com/invite/bJdbpH3hQm   YouTube -  https://www.youtube.com/@HauntedAmericanHistory   TikTok - @hah_podcast   hauntedamericanhistory.com   Patreon- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/hauntedamericanhistory⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠   LINKS FOR MY DEBUT NOVEL, THE FORGOTTEN BOROUGH   Barnes and Noble -   https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-forgotten-borough-christopher-feinstein/1148274794?ean=9798319693334       AMAZON: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FQPQD68S       EbookGOOGLE: https://play.google.com/store/books/details?id=S5WCEQAAQBAJ&pli=1   KOBO: https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/the-forgotten-borough-2?sId=a10cf8af-5fbd-475e-97c4-76966ec87994&ssId=DX3jihH_5_2bUeP1xoje_ SMASHWORD: https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/1853316 !!

From haunted New Jersey suburbs to melancholy Irish landscapes to the contested wilds of the American West, Alan Minskoff joins host Jo Reed to discuss three sharply different works of fiction in audio. Tom Perrotta's Ghost Town, narrated by Robert Petkoff, blends grief, adolescence, and the supernatural through Petkoff's nuanced character work, while Derbhle Crotty and Darragh Shannon bring quiet emotional precision to The News From Dublin, evoking the atmosphere of longing and displacement in Colm Tóibín's story collection. The conversation closes with Taylor Brown's Wolvers, read by Ramiz Monsef, whose vivid performance captures the tensions between ranchers, militias, environmentalists, and wolves in the modern West. These audiobooks may share little besides the genre of fiction, but each narrator creates a fully realized world listeners can step into and stay with long after the final chapter.   Audiobooks Discussed: Ghost Town by Tom Perrotta, read by Robert Petkoff (Simon & Schuster Audio) The News From Dublin: Stories by Colm Tóibín, read by Derbhle Crotty and Darragh Shannon (Simon & Schuster Audio) Wolvers by Taylor Brown, read by Ramiz Monsef (Recorded Books Inc.)   Support for Behind the Mic comes from HarperCollins Focus and HarperCollins Christian Publishing, publishers of some of your favorite audiobooks and authors, including Reba McEntire, Bob Goff, Savannah Guthrie, Max Lucado, Lysa TerKeurst, and many more.     Learn more about your ad choices.

The News Is Broken—And It's Breaking Your Brain BREAKING NEWS!” Every alert is urgent. Every headline is a crisis. Every story is supposedly the end of the world. But what if the real problem isn't the news… it's the way the news is built? Today on The Karel Show, we dive into the nonstop outrage machine that modern media has become. Fear, anger, panic, urgency—it's all engineered to keep you watching, clicking, doom-scrolling and emotionally exhausted. Are we finally tuning out because the news itself is broken? We'll look at today's biggest headlines and ask: * Which stories truly matter? * Which are manufactured outrage? * And how much of “breaking news” is actually broken journalism? Also: Primm, Nevada—the once-iconic stop between Las Vegas and California—is becoming a modern ghost town. So what killed it? Bad planning? Changing travel habits? Corporate greed? We'll break down the slow collapse of a desert landmark. And the Pope issues a massive warning about Artificial Intelligence in a 43,000-word address—and the tech world immediately shrugs it off. Is the Vatican overreacting… or seeing something Silicon Valley refuses to admit? The Karel Show streams live Monday through Thursday at 10:30 AM PST.

Kennecott - Alaska's $5 Billion Ghost Town Where Workers Never Left

In 1938, America's richest copper mine shut down overnight. The Kennecott Copper Corporation ordered 300 workers to evacuate immediately—leaving behind tools on benches, meat in storage, money in safes, and twelve bodies in graves. For 87 years, the buildings have stood empty on an Alaskan mountainside, perfectly preserved by the cold. But park rangers, tour guides, and visitors report something impossible: the sound of machinery running in the silent mill, footsteps in locked buildings, voices speaking languages the workers spoke, and lantern lights moving through structures that haven't had electricity since 1938. This is the story of Kennecott—the town that refuses to die, the cemetery that was abandoned, and the workers who may have never really left. Join Carman Carrion as we explore one of America's strangest ghost towns, where $100 million worth of infrastructure was simply locked up and walked away from, and where the dead have been waiting for nearly a century for someone to remember them.   #DestinationTerror #Kennecott #AlaskaGhostTown #AbandonedPlaces #TrueHistory #GhostStories #CopperMine #WrangellStElias #HauntedAlaska #GhostTown #IndustrialHistory #AbandonedMine #CreepyHistory #ParanormalHistory #HistoricalMysteries #AlaskaHistory #KennecottMine #GhostTownExploration #HauntedHistory #TrueCrime   EXPLORE MORE SPINE-CHILLING CONTENT: Freaky Folklore: https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/freaky-folklore Carman's Crypt (Original Horror): https://www.carman-carrion.com/ Deadly Intent (True Crime): https://www.carman-carrion.com/ Destination Terror: https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/destination-terror ________________________________________ SUPPORT THE SHOW: Patreon (Ad-Free + Bonus Content): https://www.patreon.com/c/CarmanCarrion Buy Me a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/carmancarrion ________________________________________ CONNECT WITH CARMAN: Website: https://www.carman-carrion.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@CarmanCarrion Twitter/X: https://x.com/CarmanCarrion Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/carmancarrion/ ________________________________________ SUBSCRIBE & REVIEW: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0uiX155WEJnN7QVRfo3aQY iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/freaky-folklore/id1550361184 Your support helps bring you more terrifying tales. ________________________________________ DISCOVER MORE HORROR: http://eeriecast.com/ https://www.carman-carrion.com/ ________________________________________ THE CRYPT SHOP: https://the-crypt-shop-2.myshopify.com/ ________________________________________ MUSIC CREDITS: Music and sound effects provided by: CO.AG, Myuu, Jinglepunks, Epidemic Sound, Kevin MacLeod, Dark Music, and Soundstripe.

The Gray Man, the world's deadliest assassin and apex predator, discovers he's really the prey in the most shocking entry of this #1 New York Times bestselling series.      Family means different things to different people, but in the Gray Man's world, family is defined by blood—the blood you share with some and the blood you shed with others.      Court Gentry's current family operates out of an office park in Norfolk, Virginia. The Ghost Town is an off-the-books direct action team run by Matt Hanley, former CIA Deputy Director. They take on the jobs the Agency needs handled “discretely,” and those jobs are rolling in.      Somewhere at the top of the US Intelligence apparatus, security experts and intelligence operations worldwide are threatened.       It starts with a blown safe house in Tunis. Then Court himself barely escapes from an ambush in the jungles of Nicaragua. Now key members of the U.S. counterintelligence community are being assassinated in their own neighborhoods. With the feds compromised, it's up to Court and his team to stop the hit squads.       But eliminating professional kill teams may be the least of the Gray Man's worries when he finds himself targeted by the legendary assassin codenamed Whetstone—a man driven out of retirement by a very personal quest to rain down hellfire on Court and everyone he's ever loved, starting with the father he hasn't seen in twenty years.  Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

People who visit Hannah Creek Swamp report cold spots, feelings of dread, and the sound of a hanging. Johnston County has a lot of history, but this particular stretch of swamp has a story soaked into it — a Confederate lieutenant, a band of rogue soldiers who crossed every line, a gold crucifix found around the wrong neck, and a revenge killing so far outside the rules of war that nobody's quite known what to do with it for 160 years. It's a ghost story. It's a war crime story. It's also, it turns out, a case of mistaken identity stretching across two centuries — because the monster at the center of it was already dead before the Civil War started. The swamp, apparently, does not care about the timeline.

In this gripping episode, we sit down with an all-star lineup of paranormal voices: Laura from the Midnight in the Mountains Podcast, Jason York from AFK Discussions, and Brooks Rinish from the East Tennessee paranormal team The Smokies Unforgotten Spirits.Together, we dive deep into one of Tennessee's most haunted and mysterious locations — Elkmont Ghost Town, nestled deep within the Great Smoky Mountains National Park near Gatlinburg.Once a thriving early 1900s logging community and exclusive mountain resort for the wealthy, Elkmont was left to slowly fade after the creation of the national park. Today, its decaying yet eerily preserved cabins, the infamous “Troll Bridge,” and historic homes stand as a haunting time capsule of Appalachian life — and a hotspot for intense paranormal activity.From shadowy air entities and dark figures to chilling encounters with Black-Eyed Kids, aggressive spirits, and even reports of Bigfoot, Elkmont has earned its reputation as one of the most active locations in the Smokies.But this episode goes far beyond the legends. The guys open up about a terrifying personal experience they had in the ghost town — an encounter so powerful it has haunted them ever since and may have left a lasting impact on their lives.Join us for a wild, unforgettable night at Elkmont Ghost Town and discover the lingering effects this abandoned place continues to have on those who dare to investigate it.Got a mind-blowing paranormal encounter, cryptid sighting, UFO experience, or any high-strangeness story that still gives you chills?

Perched 400 meters above Italy's alien badlands, the medieval ghost town of Craco clings to crumbling cliffs where nothing should stand. In 1963, landslides began tearing the town apart—but the survivors say it wasn't geology that drove them out. It was something older. Something that lived in the clay hills long before Greeks built their fortress here. When 1,800 people fled in terror, they left behind more than just empty buildings. They left behind their dead, their memories, and something that still walks the tilted streets after dark. Tour guides wear hard hats and carry amulets. They never go after sunset. They know the rules. But when an American researcher breaks every warning to document Craco alone at night, she discovers why the locals call it 'the town the earth rejected.' Some places don't just crumble. Some places push back.   #DestinationTerror #Craco #Italy #GhostTown #AbandonedPlaces #Basilicata #HauntedItaly #ItalianGhostTown #Malocchio #CursedTown #TrueHorror #AbandonedItaly #DarkTourism #ParanormalItaly #MedievalRuins #LandslidesOfDeath #ItalianFolklore #CreepyPlaces #GhostTownsOfItaly #SouthernItalyHorror EXPLORE MORE SPINE-CHILLING CONTENT:  Freaky Folklore: https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/freaky-folklore  Carman's Crypt (Original Horror): https://carmanscrypt.buzzsprout.com   Deadly Intent (True Crime): https://carmancarrion.buzzsprout.com  Destination Terror: https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/destination-terror    SUPPORT THE SHOW:  Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/CarmanCarrion   Buy Me a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/carmancarrion   CONNECT WITH CARMAN:  Website: https://www.carman-carrion.com/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@CarmanCarrion  Twitter/X: https://x.com/CarmanCarrion  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/carmancarrion/   SUBSCRIBE & REVIEW:  Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0uiX155WEJnN7QVRfo3aQY  iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/freaky-folklore/id1550361184 Your support helps bring you more terrifying tales!   DISCOVER MORE HORROR: http://eeriecast.com/ https://www.carman-carrion.com/   Crypt Shop: https: //the-crypt-shop-2.myshopify.com/   MUSIC CREDITS: Music and sound effects provided by: CO.AG, Myuu, Jinglepunks, Epidemic Sound, Kevin MacLeod, Dark Music, and Soundstripe.
