The Town The Still Burns
By now most of you have heard or seen something about the infamous town that’s still burning Centralia, Pennsylvania. The town served as the inspiration for the horror franchise “Silent Hill”. If you don’t know much about the town, it used to a small busy town filled with shops, people and a mining business. Eventually tragedy struck in the mines and everyone had to leave right away. Over 50 years later the abandoned town sits there while the fires below still burn.
There are different stories of how this all came to be, from murder to corruption to various other things. But what is known is that Centralia’s coal seam fire is the United States’ worst and one of history’s most devastating fires of its kind.
