In this episode, we visit Italy to an island off the coast of Venice: Poveglia Island. This spot has a history recorded as far back as the year 420! Throughout the centuries it has had many uses, such as being a fort or shield for Venice during war times and for a lot of the years it was used to send plague victims for quarantining. Needless to say, the island had a lot of tramatic deaths. Of course this led it to becoming a ghost island!
