The Bridgewater Triangle

Located in southeastern Massachusetts is a 200sq foot area known as the Bridgewater Triangle. This area got its name because of all of the strange happenings that occur within its boundaries. It a zone that is overloaded with the paranormal.

Here there is an abnormally high amount of poltergeist and other spirit activities within the local areas and in residents homes.  One of the most haunted places is the Hockomock swamp. This area is believed to be cursed by the Native Americans that used to live here. It is also the site of a 8,000 year old Native American Burial ground. It is said that when archaelogists opened the graves, a red ochre bubbled up and then disappeared. No one was able to take photos of the site as none of the pictures developed. People now here mysterious voices and will smell smoke at random times. There have been reports of a bonfire on top of a large rock that will disappear when a person gets too close to it. People have also reported seeing ghostly figures dancing a ritualistic dance. Other famous ghosts in this area include a redheaded hitchhiker on Route 44 in Rehoboth, a spirit near the Hockomock swamp on route 138, and a ghostly truck driver from Freetown who will blare his horn angrily at other motorists and speed past them.

The Bridgewater triangle is also well known for its cryptids. A Bigfoot like creature has been seen throughout the area, usually near Hockomock swamp. In the 1970s reports of a 7ft tall creature, along with footprints prompted the police to search for a bear. Neither human being or bear was ever found in the area. Other than Bigfoot there have been reports of thunderbirds. These massive birds have a wingspan of 8-12 feet and have been spotted in Hockomock swamp and Taunton. Another mysterious report is that of a phantom dog. It was reported that a large dog with glowing red eyes was found killing two ponies. Supposedly the dog was as big as the two ponies were. There have also been reports of giant snakes in the area.

Other than ghosts and cryptids, the Bridgwater triangle is home to many UFO sightings. These sightings date back to 300 years when settlers in 1760 saw a glowing ball of light up in the sky. Other UFO sightings include Halloween of 1908 when UFO sightings made the local newspapers, in 1968 when five people claimed to have seen a strange ball of light floating among the trees in Rehoboth, A string of UFO sightings in the 1970’s, with one report in 1976 claiming that two UFOs were seen landing along route 44, in 1994 an officer saw a triangular shaped craft with red and white lights, and in modern times there are still frequent reports of glowing balls of light which float over the ground a the local dog track in Raynham.

As if the above were not enough, this area has been home to grisly murders (including an underground bunker with chains and bindings made for children), mysterious will-o-the wisp type lights, animal mutilations, satanic rituals, and mysterious black helicopters that patrol the skys.
