[Mystery] Lake Lanier: Georgia's Cursed Waters

from Moms and Mysteries: A True Crime Podcast · host Moms and Mysteries Podcast

Lake Lanier, Georgia's largest lake, is one of the deadliest bodies of water in America—with over 700 deaths since its creation in 1956. But the lake's dark history goes deeper than tragic accidents. Built by flooding entire communities, including a predominantly Black town that was never properly evacuated, Lake Lanier sits atop homes, churches, and even cemeteries. Locals believe the lake is cursed, haunted by the spirits of those whose graves were disturbed. We explore the eerie history of Lake Lanier, the mysterious deaths and disappearances that continue to this day, and the folklore that has made it one of America's most haunted places. Some waters are better left undisturbed. New episodes every Tuesday and Thursday!
