The Abandoned Amusement Park of Lake Shawnee

In 1926 Conley Snidow opened the Lake Shawnee Amusement Park in West Virginia, on land that many believe was once sacred to the indigenous tribes of the region. Echoes of the land's subsequent bloody history and the park's tragic demise are said to still resonate there today. Help Southern Gothic grow by becoming a Patreon Supporter today!
