Mel's Hole Fact or Fiction

Have you ever heard the Legend of Mel's Hole? A bottomless pit in Washington? I was the only one, neither Mandi or Kelly had.  Let me to tell you, I had heard of it, but it was a saga with turns I never expected.

Just in time for Aril fools day, join us as we dive deep into Mels' hole...Real or hoax...

Trigger warnings: Childish humor and Animal abuse.

The Dogman of Northern MI

The Athens Lunatic Asylum

We love to dig into the history of old asylums and the Athens Lunatic Asylum is unique because some of the buildings are still used today to house college students. There are numerous stories of hauntings at the college to this day. 

We hope you enjoy.
