It was said to emit a black beam, restore a pet back to life, and even be a portal to another dimension. Support us directly: https://www.redwebpod.com On a night like any other, Coast to Coast AM was live on the radio in Washington State, USA. The overnight program discussed all things uncanny and entertained the discussion of a local man who claimed his backyard held something otherworldly. He would call periodically over the next 5 years, each time with new information about a magical bottomless pit in his backyard. What started as a piece of local lore eventually required a full government intervention, and the man was never heard from again. Today, we’re discussing the eerie urban legend of Mel’s Hole.
