A Ghost Town in the Mountains

Deep in the heart of Appalachia lies the forgotten town of Ravenswood, once a thriving mining hub. Now, it's home to nothing but the occasional hiker and a bunch of old, abandoned buildings.

Ravenswood was founded in the late 19th century as a coal mining town, but its fortunes changed when the mine closed down in the 1950s. Since then, the town's population has dwindled to just a handful of folks, all of whom are rumored to be haunted.
