Troublesome Gap

Podcast Description

Something very bad and mysterious is happening near Hollowlog Cove, North Carolina – an ancient, tiny hamlet lodged deep in the Appalachian Mountains and nestled just below the aptly named mountain pass Troublesome Gap. Mysterious lights float up out of the mountains, wreaking havoc with the area's power and the local's psyches. There are strange sounds – a fuzzy indistinct buzzing, a low rumble as if the mountains themselves were groaning, all punctuated by nearly human noises: a child's cry, or laughter, or ghostly singing. No one knows what’s behind this ominous phenomenon, though the Smithsonian has sent its experts, and now Federal agents are exploring the place. There have been attempts to unlock the mystery, God knows, but none of them have been successful – and many people have vanished along the way. Listen in and go to the website troublesomegap.org to follow several groups of locals, researchers, nature enthusiasts and agents as they attempt to get to the bottom of the strange happenings surrounding Troublesome Gap.
