For more than 200 years, treasure hunters have been digging into a small patch of ground on Oak Island, Nova Scotia, chasing the promise of buried riches. What started with a depression in the earth beneath an oak tree has spiralled into generations of obsession: pirate loot, Templar relics, Shakespeareâs manuscripts, or maybe just a very elaborate sinkhole. In this episode we dig (pun intended) into the Oak Island Money Pit â the strange engineering, the endless theories, the six lives already lost to the so-called âcurse,â and why people keep pouring money into a hole that never gives anything back. We also get distracted by the usual nonsense because of course we do. If youâre into unsolved mysteries, cursed treasure, weird history, and two idiots who canât stay on topic, youâre in the right place.  đïž Get in Touch Email: houseofweirdpod@gmail.com Twitter: @houseofweirdpod Instagram: @houseofweirdpod Facebook: House of Weird Podcast Website: www.houseofweirdpodcast.com  đ” Credits Main theme: âHalloween Fun Spookyâ by soundfruit / Audio Jungle News theme: âBreaking Newsâ by BRidgeMusic / Pond5 Ambient music: âNo Way Outâ by Rene Gijzemijter / Pond5
