Listen Later

Welcome to another episode of the Lesser Known where we explore some of the most common places that are riddled with lesser known spots, facts, and hauntings within.


In this episode we go over how the U.S. Virgin Island came under U.S. rule including the generous donation made by a Billionaire who frequented the Islands. We'll also talk about unique things found within the park such as:

1. Biobays

2. Disappearing Planes

3. Unexplained Underwater Noises

4. And 5 Things you didn't know about the Islands

We appreciate you listening and hope you enjoy it!
