Hollow Ground: American Mysteries from the Forgotten Places

They vanished without a trace. The records were erased. But the evidence remains

In the shadows of America's history lie stories that were meant to stay buried—entire communities that disappeared overnight, expeditions that never returned, institutions whose darkest year was simply deleted from all official records. These are not legends or folklore. These are documented events that investigators couldn't explain and authorities chose to forget.

From a hidden burial chamber in 1883 to a sanatorium that emptied itself in 1904, from lighthouse keepers who walked into the sea to children found perfectly preserved in a mountain cave, these meticulously researched accounts reveal a disturbing pattern: something has been waiting in America's forgotten places, and throughout our history, people have been answering its call.

Historian Adrian Cave spent fifteen years tracking down suppressed documents, sealed archives, and testimony from descendants who preserved stories that contradicted official history. What he discovered was evidence of phenomena that challenge everything we think we know about the past—and the present.

Each chapter unveils a different mystery:
- The Hollow Ridge Clan's children, found in impossible preservation and then vanishing before science could study them
- Three lighthouse keepers who disappeared after reporting lights beneath the ocean
- A train full of passengers that arrived at a station and simply ceased to exist
- An entire mining town of 300 souls that fell silent in a single night
- Students at an elite academy whose missing year was erased from all records
- And more accounts of the unexplained, the suppressed, and the impossible

These events are connected by more than their strangeness. They share common elements that suggest a pattern stretching across decades and geography—ancient sites predating known settlement, altered states of consciousness, references to transformation and waiting, and complete disappearances where people left behind everything except themselves.

Based on primary sources including journals, letters, official reports, and photographs that were never meant to survive, *Hollow Ground* presents historical mysteries that resist easy explanation and suggest that the America we know has always existed alongside another America—older, stranger, and far less comprehensible.

Perfect for readers of unexplained history, historical mysteries, and accounts of the paranormal, this collection will leave you questioning the gaps in our maps, the silences in our histories, and the places we've been taught not to look.

*Some doors were opened in America's past that have never been closed. Some mysteries were buried but never solved. And some places remain hollow, waiting beneath the surface of the world we think we know.

The forgotten places remember. And they're waiting still.
