Lake Lanier

This week, we’re heading to Lake Lanier — one of the most visited lakes in America, and one of its most mysterious. Known for its beautiful views and busy summers, Lake Lanier also has a darker reputation. With hundreds of reported deaths since its creation in 1956, the lake has become the center of countless legends, ghost stories, and unexplained encounters. Beneath the water lies the history of Oscarville, a once-thriving community that was flooded to make way for the reservoir. Some believe the stories surrounding the lake are tied to what was left behind. From tragic accidents to the legend of the Lady of the Lake, Becca dives into the history, mysteries, and hauntings that have made Lake Lanier infamous.
