49. Poveglia Island

from Is This a Ghost?

Who wants to join us at an island resort? It's abandoned and overgrown, and there are some Bubonic plague ghosts are the bar. Come on, let's go and feel the sand under our toes! Oops, wait, that's not sand, it's the ashes of the dead.This is the story of Poveglia Island. Come for the ghosts, stay for a deconstructed hot toddy, the teats of our voices, plagues jokes, tennis court forts, and therapy sheep.Sources:https://luxeadventuretraveler.com/poveglia-italy/https://www.findhouseitaly.com/immobile/isola-di-poveglio-e-ottagono-laguna-sud-venezia-venetohttps://www.travelchannel.com/shows/ghost-adventures/articles/poveglia-islands-haunted-historyhttps://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/plague#:~:text=Plague%20can%20be%20a%20very,pneumonic%20kind%20when%20left%20untreatedhttps://www.visitvenezia.eu/en/venetianity/discover-venice/the-defensive-system-of-the-venice-lagoon-the-octagons#:~:text=Poveglia%20Octagon&text=With%20a%20naturally%20octagonal%20plan,hands%20of%20the%20state%20propertyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Povegliahttps://italicsmag.com/2020/03/28/italian-ghost-stories-poveglia-island/
