from Mysteries at Bedtime

Beneath the opulent halls of The Greenbrier Hotel in West Virginia lies one of America's best-kept Cold War secrets a massive underground fallout shelter built in the 1950s, known as Project Greek Island. For over 30 years, this covert government facility remained hidden in plain sight, ready to house every member of the U.S. Congress in the event of nuclear war. But when the existence of the bunker was exposed in the 1990s, questions began to surface—questions about areas of the complex not found on any blueprint.Whispers emerged of a missing room, sealed off behind reinforced walls, its purpose unknown. Was it simply an unfinished part of the project or something more sinister? From Cold War paranoia and government deception to the eerie silence surrounding what still lies locked underground, this episode of Mysteries at Bedtime explores the true story of The Greenbrier bunker… and the chilling rumours that refuse to be buried.You can get early and ad free access to this show and more here Hosted on Acast.
