In this gripping episode of Murders, Mysteries, and Conspiracies, Glenn P. Clinger III dives into two of the most catastrophic floods in American history—the 1889 Johnstown Flood and the devastating 1985 West Virginia Flood.

Uncover the story of Johnstown, Pennsylvania, where a crumbling dam unleashed a wall of water that obliterated everything in its path, killing over 2,200 souls in just minutes. Then fast-forward nearly a century to November 1985, when relentless rain drowned entire West Virginia communities like Parsons, Rowlesburg, Petersburg, and even parts of Clarksburg were overwhelmed, and towns like Albright were nearly erased from the map.

How did greed, negligence, and ignored warnings contribute to these preventable disasters? What could have been done differently?

We’ll examine the eerie similarities between past and present, the soaring cost of lives lost and property destroyed, and the painful lessons still unheeded in today's era of climate extremes.

Don’t miss this haunting journey through America’s forgotten flood zones.
