Not Really A Bat Cave

John Hay, cave

There is a concern about wild animals entering the cave since many of them live around it. Well, since this cave is a little secluded, there have been a few groundkeepers reporting the sightings of wild bats at the lodge. However, these has rarely happened in this multimillionaire recluse. It is still a very safe space to spend time in.

Worst That Could Happen

The Cold War got over and there is no need for the shelter but you never know right? Even if this cavern is not used as a shelter, the mere fact that it is there as a vacation spot is something truly rare. If you have safety concerns, you would be happy to learn that the site has a concrete block to seal any and every opening inside the cave.

It has gone from a potential bunker to a nightclub to a resort!

Not The Only Person

John Hay

John Hay was definitely not the only person to be fearful of the clash between the United States and the Soviet Union. During the 1940s and ’50s, and even in the ’80s, thousands of Americans were afraid that the worst would happen. It was terrifying for both average citizens and wealthy ones. Hence even the other bomb shelters were incredible.

Survivalists Nowadays

Besides the Cold War, even 9/11, and the 2009 financial crisis have led to some folks panicking, looking for safety and security. These people fear both political and economic crisis that could end up eradicating so many people. Even the rich cannot escape this doom so there have been a number of folks who end up building spectacular sites.

The singer who gained fame for his song “Sandy,” who also came out back in 1959, is quite alarmed about an apocalypse taking place. In 2008, he bought himself a Cold War-era missile silo in Kansas City for $300,000. He then spent $20 million to create something amazing. He built an apartment complex that could keep anyone safe from bomb blasts.
