In 1587, over 100 English settlers established the Roanoke Colony on an island off the coast of what is now North Carolina. Led by John White, the colony faced many challenges. When White returned from a supply trip in 1590, he found the colony completely abandoned, with only the word "CROATOAN" carved into a post as a clue. Theories about what happened range from Native American attacks and relocation to mysterious supernatural forces. To this day, the fate of the Roanoke Colony remains one of America's most chilling unsolved mysteries.
