Send us a text

We explore the mysterious Mushroom Mines of Lawton, Kentucky, diving into its rich history and the eerie legends that surround this abandoned underground complex. From limestone mine to mushroom farm to alleged cult gathering spot, these caves hold decades of fascinating stories that continue to draw curious visitors.

This episode also features a healthy dose of Appalachian humor, including Mitch's grandfather's colorful saying "Jump back and spit in my ass" - an expression of surprise that perfectly captures the reaction many have when learning about this hidden world beneath the Kentucky hills. Whether you believe in ghosts or not, the true history of the Mushroom Mines proves sometimes reality is more fascinating than any paranormal tale.

This deep dive into local lore was chosen by our first Patreon supporters, and we couldn't be more grateful they selected such a rich topic. Join us as we separate fact from fiction and explore why these abandoned tunnels continue to captivate visitors from across the country decades after their industrial purpose faded away.
