Beginning in December of 2003, strange and unexplained fires began occurring in the seaside town of Canneto Di Caronia, Sicily, Italy. The fires caused damage to many homes and businesses and the residents had to evacuate by the next summer. What's strange is that the cause of the fires has never been determined even after scientists and government organizations studied the quiet town. Filmmaker Laura Moss joins the podcast to discuss the strange mystery of Canneto. Theories include UFOs, secret weapons testing, and, of course, the Devil.
Catch Laura Moss' feature film BIRTH/REBIRTH after its premier at Sundance 2023 at a theater near you followed by its streaming on Shudder.
