In addition to cults and plane crashes, the area is home to numerous other terrifying trappings; Burial Grounds, Insane Asylums, and Murder are all players in the story of this epicenter of Macabre, known by the locals as…

Jack Whiteside Parsons, founding member of NASA's Jet Propultion Laboratory and esteemed Rocket Scientist, received a rush order of explosives for a film set and began to work on them in his home laboratory. Shortly thereafter, an explosion destroyed the lower part of the home, killing Parsons.

But what was Parson's attempting to do that day? While the logical conclusion of "combining chemicals for explosives" is a simple, straight-forward answer, the life of the now deceased man was anything but.
