Centralia, Pennsylvania.
Centralia is a ghost-town located in Columbia County, Pennsylvania. Its population has reduced from over 1000 citizens in 1980 to only 10 in 2010. This is the result of the underground fire in a coal mine which has been burning since 1962.
In may 1962, the City Council hired five firefighters-volunteers to clean the town garbage dump. Firefighters, as they did before, had set fire to a rubbish heap,
letting them burn for a while. But the fire spread through the hole in the air shaft to
the other abandoned coal mine under Centralia. All attempts to
extinguish the fire were unsuccessful. And the fire is still burning.
Centralia was an inspiration for the popular "Silent Hill" computer-game series and also its film adaptation. I believe this town can be represented as Hell on Earth.
Перевод:
Централия, Пенсильвания.
Централия - это город-призрак расположенный в округе Колумбия, Пенсильвания. Население города снизилось с более 1000 жителей в 1980 году до всего 10 в 2010. Результатом этого является подземный пожар на угольной шахте, который полыхает с 1962 года.
В мае 1962, совет города нанял пятерых добровольцев-пожарных для расчистки городской мусорной свалки. Пожарные, как они делали и раньше, подожгли мусорные кучи, позволяя им гореть некоторое время. Однако пожар распространился через вентиляционное отверстие на другие угольные шахты под Централией. Все попытки потушить пожар были неудачными. И пожар до сих пор полыхает.
Централия явилась вдохновением для популярной серии компьютерных игр "Сайлент Хилл", а также её экранизации. Я полагаю, что этот город может быть представлен как Ад на Земле.
Тут чуть больше, но так лучше. Удачи.
