Why did we pick this location?
This southern part of West Virginia is fraught with stories of coal mining accidents, age old superstitions and the dark history of Appalachian folklore. Its an area where the frontier was carved out by frontier slayings, Indian massacres and the hardiness of the pioneers. It's also an area filled with mine war history and shoot outs between the union, miners, the mine owners and the Law.
Over 7000 coal miners were embalmed in the basement.
Documented murders have occurred on site.
Unmarked graves have been discovered on site in the yard.
This is an incredible chance to explore, learn and experience part of the Mountain State's history.

Multiple investigations have taken place here over the last few years and paranormal activity has been
documented. Unexplained whispers and voices on tape, unusual cold spots and even an apparition captured
on tape have led investigators to believe that this building has activity. Why don't you meet us there and
explore for yourself?
