34: Ep. 34 Hill of Crosses

Deep in Lithuania lies a hill covered with over 100,000 crosses - a place so psychologically intense it defies explanation. The Hill of Crosses has mysterious 14th-century origins, survived three Soviet bulldozings, and continues to affect visitors in ways that challenge rational thought. This isn’t your typical ghost story - it’s something far more unsettling.

Join us as we explore the true history of Kryžių kalnas, from its unknown medieval beginnings to its role as a symbol of resistance against Soviet oppression. Discover why people risked everything to secretly place crosses on this hill, why it resurrected itself after being destroyed, and what happens when 700 years of human desperation gets concentrated in one location.

No fabricated hauntings needed - the documented reality is disturbing enough. This is the story of a place where faith, trauma, and defiance created something that operates by different rules than normal geography.
