I was watching Ghostly Encounters on the Bio channel, when a commercial came up with a distur bing image of chunks of something dropping into a body of water. Then a banner came up that said, "What happened in Piedmont?" Then a website appeared.
I didn't know what to expect--maybe a scandal. Maybe a new tv series or movie.
Here's what I found:
http://www.whathappenedinpiedmont.com/
Supposedly this college kid, a journalism major, had a disturbing call from his little sister ending in some sort of chaos. Since then, no calls in or out of this supposed town in Utah, Piedmont. A "friend" supposedly traveled there as he is financially unable to go from California where he is in college to Utah--and who would pick him up at the bus stop? The friend was supposedly turned back from the main road by the military. Then, attempting to approach via a back route, they saw military vehicles blocking that road too and took a picture with a cell phone.
He alleges that the town is so small that it doesn't appear on a map. I checked it out on Mapquest. No Piedmot, Utah. My grandma's home town, Geneva, Minnesota, is about as tiny as it gets and you can find THAT on mapquest.
So, I gotta say, though I sincerely believe our government would totally hide anything from us that they felt the urge too, that I believe this is either a hoax or some kid's journalism or psychology class project.
Go check it out though--it's a great creative effort.
LOL
