Science Channel explores region’s mysterious booms in new show

WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — The Science Channel will feature the Cape Fear Region tomorrow on the series premiere of “The Unexplained Files.”

The episode called “The Carolina Beach Boom” profiles the so-called Seneca Guns frequently heard and felt around the region.

These inexplicable, window-shaking booms have been heard for decades leaving some speculating if the rumbles are from the ground below or even linked to aliens.

WWAY has done stories on the booms in the past, but we have found no definitive explanation.

You can find out the what the Science Channel thinks is the reason behind these booms tomorrow at 9 p.m. Check your local listings.
