Fabled.

In Northern Georgia there is a lake named after the poet Sidney Lanier. It wasn’t always there, but humans usually find novel ways to get water to places where it is needed. Much like any other man-made lake, it has since become a tourist attraction since it was created in 1956. By some estimates, nearly 8,000,000 people come from all around the world every year to enjoy the beauty of this man made marvel. Looking back through history, large congregations of humanity tend to bring mystery and tragedy with them. This lake is no different. Lake Lanier seems to be plagued by all manner of mysterious forces: rogue waves, killings, suicides, missing persons, giant animals, mysterious shadows in the water, abandoned towns deep under the lake, and even the occasional haunting. Sounds like the place to be, huh? Today we have an interview with a Georgia native named Patrick. He lives close to Lake Lanier and he has provided great insight to the local perspective on these mysteries. Enjoy. And… Welcome to Fabled. Patri

Bodies of water gave life to the small tribes of humans that wandered the land in pre-historic times. When nomadic humans decided to shed their ancient ways for more agrarian lifestyles, water allowed these tribes of people to congregate around plots of fertile land to raise livestock and plant vast fields of crops in order to maintain the ability to stay in one spot for long periods of time. These rivers and lakes were literally the lifeblood of these communities. But for all the good these bodies of water have done, they are still mysterious forces of nature to us, and humans have always held a tenuous relationship with them because, try as we might to dam them, re-route them, or outright stop them in their tracks, water persists, and the inevitability of its victory over our attempts to control them or investigate them is ever-present. Today on Fabled, we’re talking about mysteries that surround the one thing that is probably the most responsible for our success as a species: rivers and lakes. Welcome to F

From Count Dracula to Jigsaw, we can’t help but give the creatures living in the dark corners of our minds some semblance of life. Whether that life is on paper and housed in the imaginations of the reader or seen on the big screen at your local cinema, we delight in frightening each other with the horrors we create and, at the end of our experiences with them, we take a breath and tell ourselves “That was fun but at least it wasn’t real.” And that’s true... right? What if the monsters that dwell in our imagination have the potential to be just that: real? Is it possible we can create our worst fears by focusing so intensely on them that they spring into existence, fully formed and ready to rain terror on us? Some think so, and this focus on our fears may

Humans have a tendency to attribute mystery to the mundane. When mysterious impressions are found in 19th-century Nevada, the question everyone has on their minds is "where did these come from?"    Thank you for listening and remember, Mysteries Abound.
