Mystery Stairs

Send us Fan MailOn this episode of History Reinvented – Pine Camp, the stairs to nowhere, VCU professor Marie Vergamini and her students, who’ve been studying and digging into the history of Pine Camp, literally, take me to where they found the stairs to nowhere. Once covered in a huge mess of debris, the team dug up the bits and pieces of the stairwell, which looks almost like some weird outdoor giant bath tub or a coffin with stairs. History Reinvented is created solely by me, Ian Stewart.
