Oh, KFC? I figured maybe the chiropractor loaded you into a giant bucket and whirled it around, like one of those amusement park rides, to straighten out your spine.
January 26, 1972, 22-year-old flight attendant Vesna Vulovic, was on a DC-9 which got blown up by a terrorist group. She was in the tail section of the plane, which fell 30,000+ feet, crashed onto a tree-covered, snow-covered mountainside, she was the only survivor. Severely injured, but she recovered.
A friend of mine is a big Disney buff, and one time she was giving me a tour of Disneyland and knew all these places with "dark" lore. For example, here some woman had been killed by the Tom Sawyer riverboat when a rope snapped.
Or here was the spot where, if you stood by this fence when Tinkerbell slid down the rope from the castle, you could hear the "wommp!" when she dropped to the mattress. Ok, that's not really a dark thing, but it was an interesting bit of trivia.
Also, in the Haunted Mansion, there's place where there's a spiderweb covering part of the glass where they project the ghosts, and it's not there in the Disneyworld version. The reason it was put there was, somebody fired a gun from the ghost-car and cracked the glass, and it would have been hugely expensive to replace the glass, so they put up the spiderweb to cover the bullet-hole.
Also, supposedly when they were testing the log flume ride, it kept decapitating the dummies until they made adjustments.
Then of course there's the place with Walt Disney's private apartment. I guess that doesn't count as a "dark" area.
It was a little creepy to hear the revised Tiki Birds routine with Phil Hartman's voice, soon after he died. I don't know it that has been replaced or put back to the original.
On another tagent, just today a monorail driver at Disneyworld was killed.
Just to point out, Asimov merely wrote the novelization of FANTASTIC VOYAGE; it was based on the story by Jerome Bixby and Otto Klement, screenplay by Harry Kleiner.
Jerome Bixby wrote 4 STAR TREK episodes, including the mirror universe one (Evil Spock with a beard), and the TWILIGHT ZONE episode "It's a GOOD life" (Bill Mumy sending people to the cornfield).
Well, Elberton, Georgia is pretty rural (the Georgia Guidestones are here in Google Earth: 34.231944, -82.894444).
It's unlikely in the case of a nuclear war that the Guidestones would be hit. There's a dozen bigger cities or military bases that would be more likely targets in Georgia.
Just saying, in certain circumstances you might not want a see-through canoe. Moving about up there, might make you look pretty tasty to a shark. He might be inclined to keep bumping your canoe to see if he can get you to fall out!

"Oh no! Did he suffer much?"
"No, he got out twice to piss!"
