Summary
The Outer Banks of North Carolina, home of the “Croatoan” mystery and the lost colony of Roanoke, are reportedly haunted. Dive into the thrilling enigma with Edge of Wonder. Visit https://rise.tv/video for free exclusive content! Visit https://metaphysicalcoffee.com for coffee that's out of this world! In 1587, John White and a group of more than 100 settlers arrived on Roanoke Island, North Carolina. But three years later, a relief ship returned to the area to find the entire colony mysteriously abandoned—and not a single colonist in sight. Did they relocate? All mysteriously die? Get eaten by a goatman or attacked by a native tribe? The only clues we have about what happened are the cryptic word “CROATOAN” that was carved into a post of the fort’s palisade, and the word “CRO” carved into a tree. What really happened to the colonists has been the thing of legends ever since, with supernatural folklore mixed into the tale. July 22 is the anniversary of the day they first arrived on Roanoke before they all vanished, so let’s go over the facts and rumors tonight on this Edge of Wonder Live. At the end of the show, don’t miss the live Q&A followed by a meditation/prayer only on Rise TV. We’ll see you out… on the edge.
