The first time most people heard about Lime Town was on the night of February 8th 2004.

17 minutes later, the first responders arrived to the outside of the town.

17 minutes later, the first responders arrived to the outside gate, followed shortly thereafter by local news station WVPK, where they uncovered the troubling reality.

No one was allowed access into Lime Town.

Samantha, can you tell us what's going on?

Thanks Ron, we're standing at the outer security gates of Lime Town and as you can see, there is a large gathering of police officers and firefighters here, but they are not being allowed into the facility.

Not being allowed, what do you mean they're not being allowed? Who's not allowing them Samantha?

Well we can't get anyone to speak to us right now, but we can see that there is a sizable security presence on the other side of the fence, and there seems to be an ongoing conversation.

Can someone tell us what's happening?

Could be back to two people though.

Sorry we're being told to clear the area now, there seems to be a lot of confusion.

The reason or reasons for their denied access remains a point of contention.

The next morning, there was no visible activity within the community.

There is no one on the ground that I can see, but there does appear to be a large smoldering bonfire, how it gets.

There's one large snake in the ground hard to make out from here what I'm looking at.

For the next two days, Lime Town was dormant.

All attempts at contact failed.

And on the morning of February 11th, the security team left their post.

Police officers on the scene were prevented, presumably by their superiors, from stopping the security team for questioning.

The security at the front gate is now driving away from the facility.

Sorry, there's a lot of happening.

The gate to Lime Town was left open.
