Rapture, Harmony Township, Indiana
Rapture was originally called "White's Settlement", and is one of the oldest communities in Posey County.[2] It was laid out in 1838 by John Cox, and became known as "Winfield", and also "Bugtown".[3] The present name of Rapture may have come from a local horse.[4] Cox Creek runs through the community.[5]
A post office was established at Rapture in 1892, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1902.[6]
CNN reported in 2011 that just one person lives in Rapture, where they own a home, rental property and airplane hangar.[7] The airplane landing strip is known as "Bugtown Airport".[8]
