045: Easter Island Mystery

Welcome to Case of the Sunday Scaries!
Today Elyse is breaking down the mystery of Easter Island, the most remote inhabited island on the planet!
Easter Island is most famous for its 900 statues called Moai and the mysteries and theories created to explain them. Why did the Rapa Nui people create so many Moai statues? How were these multi-ton statues created and transported? Who is the Birdman?”
Join us for a new Case of The Sunday Scaries every Sunday!
