Episode 70: Playing the Triangle: Bridgewater

First, here’s an article going over a few points about King Phillip’s War. I briefly went through it during the opening of the episode as the context sets up why people think this area is so spooky in the first place. But, this was a real war with real death, so read at your own risk.

This article is from someone who lives there in the Bridgewater Triangle, so if you’re interested in that perspective, this is the article for you!

I only barely touched on the Bridgewater Triangle and the episode is still the longest one we’ve put out. So if you’re interested in going on a road trip to the triangle for a little paranormal exploring, here’s a list of places you can check out. Some of these we talked about, some of them we didn’t. And there are pictures!

We talked a little about pukwudgies in this episode. They’re supposed to haunt the forest and swamp that takes up so much space inside the triangle. They aren’t very nice, so watch out for them if you’re there exploring.

And here’s a little reading about Maushop (sometimes Moshup) the Giant that was called upon to rid the area of pukwudgies. I just think his lore is neat.

This article talks about some of the true crime that has happened in the Freetown-Fall River State Forest that is inside the triangle. This article contains content some people might find disturbing surround harm to a minor.

This article goes much more in-depth about the three murders that make up the Fall River Cult Murders. Some people might find these details extremely disturbing.

I’ll end on a nicer note. This article follows city forester Mike Labossiere through Freetown-Fall River State Forest as he talks about the beautiful, amazing qualities of the bioreserve and how important it is to protect the area as well as how much people in the area wish others would let those old true crime stories stay buried and learn to love the forest for it’s beauty. There’s a lot of cool facts in here and gorgeous pictures!
