The centre on the Tallapoosa

Alabama · USA · Execution site

A casino on the riverbank owned by the Poarch Band of Creek Indians, standing close to burial mounds that are a great deal older than any of it.

The entertainment centre sits on the banks of the Tallapoosa River in Alabama and is owned and operated by the Poarch Band of Creek Indians. It stands close to very old burial mounds.

Employees report a sense of not being alone, and voices whispering close to the ear with nobody beside them. Machines behave oddly.

The mounds are the important thing on this page. This is Muscogee country, the Creek people were forced west from Alabama in the 1830s, and the Poarch Band are descended from those who stayed. The land the business sits on is theirs by a route that runs through one of the ugliest chapters in American history.

That context is the reason accounts here should be read differently from the usual casino story. The staff reporting them are largely tribal members.
