Moonville and Mt Nebo Ghost Towns Highlight Athens County

The Messenger spotlights four area ghost towns tied to coal history and eerie tales. Moonville, once a rail town near the mid 1800s tunnel, saw decline after the 20th century as the B&O removed tracks and hopes for a rail trail grew. Tales speak of headless conductors and lantern-lit echoes in the tunnel. Mt Nebo, at Mill Creek and Sand Ridge, is famed for alleged supernatural encounters that drew visitors.
