Ep. 48 : The Mystery of Dyatlov Pass
In January of 1959, a team of young Russian college students set out on an expedition deep into the Ural mountains. Their diaries and the film found in their cameras tell a story of friends exploring together, having fun and laughing along the way. 10 days into their journey, for reasons unknown, the students cut their way out of their tent in the middle of the night, and ran out into the freezing cold in various states of undress. Weeks later, when they did not return as scheduled, search parties would set out and eventually find the entire group dead. Autopsies later revealed injuries ranging from black eyes and scabbed knuckles, to shattered skulls and missing tongues. Of course there were soon rumors of mysterious lights in the sky, military conspiracies, and traces of radiation. This week on EBC, we'll dive deep into the Dyatlov Pass Incident, one of history's most enduring unsolved mysteries. We'll touch on all the weird and spooky details, and explore all the theories. Before Halee falls into a creepy obsessive abyss, Elise shares a delicious fall treat, and someone commits to getting the very first EBC fan tattoo on their ass cheek! This week is full of spookiness you won't want to miss! Happy Haunting!
