39: Buried Alive: The Hammond Horror

Step into the sweltering heart of a 1904 summer in Hammond, Indiana, where 500 souls, clad in their Sunday finery, congregated not for worship but to witness a spectacle that promised to defy the natural order — a man buried alive. In this episode, we exhume the long-buried tale of the day curiosity and morbid fascination led a town to the edges of Wolf Park, where breath and soil met in a chilling dance. We’ll dig into the motivations behind this macabre event and unearth the stories of those who stood witness to this unsettling demonstration.
