Show Notes

This week we set sail for Poveglia—an abandoned island off the coast of Venice, often called the most haunted island in the world. Shrouded in death, plague, and madness, Poveglia has served as everything from a quarantine station for the Black Death to an asylum with disturbing rumors of cruel experiments. With over 160,000 bodies said to be buried in its soil, it's no wonder the island is steeped in paranormal lore. Join us as we uncover the tragic history, legends, and eerie accounts that have earned Poveglia its terrifying reputation.
