117 men, women and children die inexplicably off of what we now know as North Carolina. (4 ene 1590 año – 31 dic 1590 año)

Descripción:

They became known as the Ghost Colony because the spirits remained. They haunted the native tribes living in the area. Killing indiscriminately. The Elder knew he had to act. He cast a banishment curse. First, he collected the personal belongings of all the dead colonists. Then they burned them. The ghosts appeared, summoned by their talismans, but before the spirits could cause them any more harm, the Elder completed the curse that would banish the ghosts forever by uttering a single word. The same word found carved on a post at the abandoned colony, 'Croatoan'.
