It is not narcolepsy, there are no carbon monoxide leaks, nor does anyone ingest «vodka of poor quality» , as some media used to say with some irony.Now there is a theory that many residents of the area defend and it has to do with an old abandoned uranium mine. It is the Krasnogorsk mine, now unused, but that in the past, in the years of splendor of the former Soviet Union, served as food for numerous nuclear power plants.

The mystery of the town where its inhabitants fall asleep without knowing how

Today, that mine opens its tunnels with a mistery mystery, starting from s Us depths winds loaded with poison, radiation and strange odors that most associate already with what is happening.For now, no one dares to give a clear conclusion.The authorities have ordered that the inhabitants of Kalachi leave the town to be relocated in neighboring cities, while specialists from the «Centers for disease and control» from the United States arrive in the region, to find out the origin of this problem.

However, there are some another inhabitant of Kalachi who refuses to leave his home completely.That invisible enemy seems not to overcome for the moment the pride or fear of all his neighbors.Meanwhile, we will be aware of what happens, speculating, drawing our own conclusions.
