Destination Terror

Deep in the most heavily forested county in Ohio, a brick tunnel stands alone in the woods with a dead town's name still carved above it — and a lantern that swings in the dark for trains that stopped running decades ago. This is the true history of the Moonville Tunnel, the ghosts of the vanished coal town that surround it, and the operating order a real railroad reportedly issued in 1981 telling engineers to look right at the phantom light and pretend it wasn't there.



Then stay for an original horror story set inside the tunnel — because the legend has one thing backwards about what that lantern is really trying to do.



🚂 Featured location: Moonville Tunnel, Vinton County, Ohio (Zaleski State Forest)

Above 26,000 feet on Mount Everest lies the death zone — where the air can't keep you alive and the cold won't let the dead decay. This is Rainbow Valley, the stretch below the summit named for the bright jackets of the climbers who never came down. This week on Destination Terror: an original story of two climbers, and a brother who won't stay buried — wrapped around the chilling true history of Everest's frozen dead and the valley of color that waits below the summit. Until we meet at our next destination.

Bolivia's North Yungas Road has a nickname it earned in full: the Road of Death. A single-lane ribbon of dirt and stone clinging to the Andes, with a wall of rock on one side and a two-thousand-foot drop into fog on the other — no guardrail, no shoulder, no mercy. It was carved out by prisoners of war in the 1930s, and for seventy years it killed by the hundreds, until it became the only road in Bolivia where you drive on the left, so you can watch your own wheels decide whether you live. But the people who bury their dead along it will tell you the danger isn't only the edge. It's what waits at the bends where the crosses cluster thickest — the women in the fog, standing where no living person ever would.



Tonight we drive it together. First a story: a young truck driver named Elías, one night, one old woman who needs a ride, and every warning his uncle ever gave him. Then the real history behind the fiction — the Chaco War, the unrecoverable bodies at the bottom of the gorge, the offerings made to a mountain that keeps a very exact ledger. As always, the story is invented. Everything underneath it is not. Keep to the left. Go slowly. And whatever you do — do not look over the edge.

In February 1945, close to a thousand Japanese soldiers were driven into a mangrove swamp on Ramree Island, off the coast of Burma. Almost none came out. The legend says saltwater crocodiles devoured them by the hundreds — a slaughter so infamous it landed in the record books as the worst animal attack in human history.

But is that what really happened?

This week on Destination Terror, we walk into the swamp the way the legend tells it — the screaming in the dark, the gunfire, the vultures at dawn — and then turn the lights on and look at what the records actually say. What we find is quieter, stranger, and somehow harder to shake than the monster story. Watch your step.

Tucked into the orchards and hop fields of Kent sits Pluckley — a village of fewer than a thousand people that once earned a Guinness World Records mention as the most haunted village in England. Behind its round white windows and postcard lanes wait somewhere between twelve and sixteen restless dead: a Red Lady drifting the churchyard in search of a child she'll never find, a White Lady sealed inside seven nested coffins, a highwayman run through with a sword at Fright Corner, a schoolmaster hanging from a tree on a quiet lane, and the Watercress Woman who burned alive on a lonely bridge — one of the few Pluckley ghosts tied
to a real, documented death. And past the last streetlamp stand the ancient trees of Dering Woods, known to the locals as the Screaming Woods, where ordinary people have fled from human screams rising out of empty darkness for decades.

Host Carman Carrion traces how one man's booklets and headlines turned a peaceful English village into a legend, separates the documented dead from the folklore — including the internet's beloved 1948 "massacre" that never happened — and then steps beneath the branches, where the screaming still has no explanation. Stay on the path. And whatever you do, don't follow the voice into the trees.
