Buried Legends

In the conclusion to our Fool's Gold mystery, we follow our persistent treasure hunter to discover why uncovering buried riches isn't always the blessing that it seems.

Let's keep digging, as an ancient map leads our treasure hunter into a tunnel of trees and bushes and vines beside a chilly little creek just above a wide, gray beach in Washington state. Will he find what he's searching for?

As the mystery of Fool's Gold deepens, we meet a man whose thirst for knowledge turns into an unquenchable search for fortunes when he discovers an ancient map that points him toward buried treasure.

From deep in the archive, the Buried Legends team has unearthed the nearly forgotten tale of a shipwrecked sailor who was found wandering on a Washington state beach in 1911, out of his mind with exposure and shock—and with ancient gold doubloons clutched in his hands. As the story unfolds, we learn that finding buried treasure doesn't always lead to fortune.

Thanks for waiting. Full episodes of Buried Legends launch on March 14th, 2024.

On Buried Legends, we go digging for the strange and often terrifying stories that would be, maybe should be, forgotten.
