TWS Episode 86 - ”Centralia: The City on Fire”

Talking With Shadows

On May 27, 1962 the coal mining town of Centralia, PA started a controlled trash burn at the local dump. A few days later the town discovered the fire had gotten inside the coal mine setting fire to the coal deposits under the town. Almost 60 years later the fire is still burning under the town. After several problems with sink holes, methane leaks, and other concerns this eventually caused the government to step in the early 90s to claim the town under imminent domain.

Years later visitors to this ghost town report sightings of ghost miners, disembodied voices, and ominous feelings as they explore the area. With such a bizarre history and all the paranormal legends surrounding the town it's no wonder the town of Centralia was even the inspiration for the Silent Hill movie. Listen as our hosts break down the history of Centralia and dive into some of the more obscure legends surrounding this fascinating ghost town.
