  • Mini Episode 21: The Claypool Tunnel

    For this week's midweek mini, we head on down to #Arizona to tell the tale of the #ClaypoolTunnel. This tunnel is now defunct, but was once a thriving part of interstate travel. Added to this is the fact that the land all around it is #haunted. The #Apache have their legendary Apache Leap and subsequent Apache Tears. The miners have deaths and #WhiteBoots. There is even a "Death Curve" as part of the road system! With all these deaths, there is much negative energy to this area. It is no surprise some of these apparitions have found their way into the tunnel.
