In this episode of HauntNarratives, we dive into the eerie and tragic story behind the horror movie Lanier. Set on Georgia’s infamous Lake Lanier, the film blends supernatural suspense with the haunting history of Oscarville, a once-thriving black community forcibly evacuated and submerged in the 1950s. As the film follows a family’s unsettling vacation, it unravels a local man’s terrifying visions and the dark secrets lurking beneath the lake’s surface.

We explore the real-life history of Lake Lanier and Oscarville, dissect the film’s chilling elements, and discuss how Lanier uses its unique setting to craft a suspenseful, thought-provoking tale. Is it cheesy? Sure. But it’s also a haunting look at how history refuses to stay buried. Join us as we uncover the true and fictional horrors that make Lake Lanier one of the most haunted places in America
