Centralia, PA: Flames of Silent Ghosts

Beneath the crumbling roads and graffiti-covered remains of Route 61 lies one of Pennsylvania’s eeriest modern ghost towns—Centralia. Once a thriving mining community, a fire set in 1962 to clear a landfill ignited a subterranean inferno that still burns to this day. In this episode, we dig into the real history behind the town that inspired Silent Hill, from the government buyouts to the chilling urban legends that rose from the ashes. While there may be few formal ghost stories, Centralia's silence speaks volumes. Some say the smoke is a sign the town is cursed, but others believe it’s a gateway to something far darker.
