THE TOWN THAT'S BEEN ON FIRE SINCE 1962

A fire that started under one small Pennsylvania town in 1962 is still burning today, over 60 years later. Experts say it could keep burning for another 250 years. It's already erased the town from the map, revoked its own zip code, and forced the state to bulldoze most of its buildings. This is the file on Centralia, Pennsylvania: the illegal Depression-era mining that set the trap decades early, the gas station tanks that hit 172°F, the 12-year-old boy who nearly fell into a 150-foot hole, and the handful of residents still waiting the fire out for the rest of their lives. America has more files than anyone's opened. We're opening them. 📩 Contact - blankspacesworld@gmail.com #ghosttown #history #documentary
