S1.E17 - The Caucastic State of Georgia and the White Washing of Lake Lanier

The Pandemonium crew is back and more unhinged than ever!In this episode, Rachel, Cat, and Cat’s husband Josh wade into the dark, blood-chilling history of Lake Lanier - a place as infamous for its eerie drownings as it is for the town buried beneath it.We’re talking murder (obviously), shady construction, submerged cemeteries, rampant racism, and a disturbing number of false police reports.What was once the thriving Black community of Oscarville became a drowned graveyard - and the lake above it now seems to thirst for lives.From ghost stories to lynching to the curse people swear still lingers, we’re pulling back the murky waters to reveal a past some would rather forget. Warning: This episode contains discussions of racial violence and death.
