you haven't seen more than what they aired on Fox?
Definitely not, because, er, I don't think I saw more than one or two episodes on Fox. (Unless that's all Fox aired? Unlikely, I'm sure, but this is Fox, so you never know...)
Centralia is truly a creepy place. When I was there, walking along the stretch of highway where the road's cracked and the smoke comes out (which is, quite literally, taking your life into your hands, because there's no way to tell where the road is safe and where it will just cave in under you, and I just don't imagine that's a pleasant way to die), it felt like we were on the set of a TV disaster movie. The "Amityville Horror" church, as capax11 and I called it, is no longer there, from what I've seen online, so you'll miss that part of the experience (I'm sure it was a lovely church in its time, but when you pull up to it just past twilight and you're in a ghost town, and this church is lit up and bright white as the clouds go by behind it, well... St Ignatius or no, it's gonna remind you of a horror flick). Still, people go to check it out.
It's been at least 6 or 7 years since I was there the second time, maybe even 10, but it's a seriously weird thing, going there. Weirdest thing, IMHO, are the people who refuse to leave (and their row houses, which are held up by brick pylons that replace the houses no longer on either side), and the signs saying things like "Centralia" inside a big heart.
