What if some of the strangest stories in Polk County aren’t just stories?

A strange light in the night sky.
A mysterious fire.
A glowing red orb along River Road.
And reports of... The Unexplained.

Some stories have possible explanations. Others leave more questions than answers.

What do YOU think happened?

On October 30, we’re taking the trolley into the unexplained side of Polk County.

And this one is for adults only.
