One treasure hunter saw the hair on his arms begin to bristle, and he felt like he was being watched. Throughout all the years they’ve stood, millions of different people coming from different groups lived there, creating a distinct culture that defines the region of Appalachia. As the group was about to get done with packing up, a group of children led by one parent walked out of the mist and started walking past them.The real story about the reason for the inhabitants abandoning the town is not clear but there are several stories around this.
