Destination Terror

Join Carman Carrion on a haunted vacation to Hot Springs, Arkansas—America's original spa town with a dark and deadly past.

In this episode of Destination Terror, Carman broadcasts from a cabin on the Ouachita River to explore the sinister history lurking beneath Hot Springs' healing waters. Discover why Al Capone, Lucky Luciano, and Bugsy Siegel made this mountain town their criminal headquarters during Prohibition. Hear the terrifying tales of the Lady in White at the Arlington Hotel, the ghostly woman who haunts the Fordyce Bathhouse, and the drowned spirits still calling for help from the depths of the Ouachita River.

From the opulent Art Deco bathhouses of Bathhouse Row to the gangster-era gambling dens, from mysterious ghost lights hovering over dark waters to shadowy figures in speakeasy bars—Hot Springs is where healing and horror collide.

Whether you're planning your own trip to Hot Springs National Park or just love a good ghost story, this episode reveals the haunted secrets of Arkansas's most beautiful—and most deadly—destination.

Featured locations: Bathhouse Row, Fordyce Bathhouse, Quapaw Bathhouse, The Arlington Hotel, The Ohio Club, Ouachita River, Lake Hamilton

In 1938, America's richest copper mine shut down overnight. The Kennecott Copper Corporation ordered 300 workers to evacuate immediately—leaving behind tools on benches, meat in storage, money in safes, and twelve bodies in graves. For 87 years, the buildings have stood empty on an Alaskan mountainside, perfectly
preserved by the cold. But park rangers, tour guides, and visitors report
something impossible: the sound of machinery running in the silent mill,
footsteps in locked buildings, voices speaking languages the workers spoke, and lantern lights moving through structures that haven't had electricity since 1938.

This is the story of Kennecott—the town that refuses to die, the cemetery that was abandoned, and the workers who may have never really left. Join Carman Carrion as we explore one of America's strangest ghost towns, where $100 million worth of infrastructure was simply locked up and walked away from, and where the dead have been waiting for nearly a century for someone to remember them.

In Northern Tanzania, a blood-red lake with a mirror-perfect surface lures birds to their deaths—then preserves their bodies as calcified statues. Lake Natron's caustic waters can burn human skin in seconds, reach temperatures of 140°F, and have a pH almost as high as ammonia. Yet millions of flamingos breed here, protected by water so toxic it kills everything else that touches it. When photographer Nick Brandt discovered the lake's shoreline littered with petrified birds
frozen in lifelike poses, the world learned about nature's most beautiful death trap. The Maasai call the nearby volcano Ol Doinyo Lengai—the Mountain of God. But what lives in the water beneath it isn't divine. It's something that has been collecting the dead for thousands of years, preserving them perfectly, waiting for the next creature to mistake its mirror surface for open sky.

The 1900 Galveston Hurricane killed 8,000 people in a single night. Bodies washed back to shore. Funeral pyres burned for weeks. This is the story of America's deadliest natural disaster—and the ghosts that still haunt the beach.

In the heart of rural France stands a village frozen in time—not by choice, but by horror. On June 10th, 1944, Nazi SS troops entered the quiet commune of Oradour-sur-Glane and committed one of World War II's most brutal massacres. 642 people—men, women, and children—were murdered in a single afternoon. But here's what makes it different from countless other wartime atrocities: the village was never rebuilt. It stands today exactly as it was left in 1944, a preserved monument to suffering where rusted cars still sit in driveways, bullet holes still mark the walls, and some say the victims never truly left. This is Oradour-sur-Glane—where the screams still echo through streets that will never know life again.
