High strangeness abounds at an alleged ‘paranormal vortex’ found in the heart of Southern Massachusetts.
Sometimes referred to as “America’s Bermuda Triangle”, the Bridgewater Triangle region was first defined by author Loren Coleman who documented Abington, Rehoboth and Freetown as the three ‘points’ of the triangle.
Within this otherwise unassuming area there have been countless reports of unexplained phenomena.
Hockomock swamp, which means ‘the place where spirits dwell’, is said to be home to all manner of unusual creatures including Bigfoot, giant snakes, giant birds and even pterodactyls.
Around 1,700 years ago, the area was used as the hunting grounds and burial site of the Wampanoag people and is still believed to be home to their chief deity of death and disease – Hobomock – after which the swamp itself is named.
Elsewhere, the Freetown-Fall River State Forest, far from being a wonderland of nature, is said to be the site of various ritualistic murders, animal sacrifices and other sinister practices.
One of its most distinctive landmarks is Profile Rock – an outcrop in the shape of a face which is said to hold special spiritual significance for the Wampanoag.
The region is also known for countless UFO and fireball sightings, as well as tales of poltergeists, Native American curses and much more.
Another point of interest in West Bridgewater – the Solitude Stone – bears the inscription:
“All ye, who in future days, Walk by Nunckatessett stream Love not him who hummed his lay Cheerful to the parting beam, But the beauty that he wooed.”
Over the years, several suicide victims have been found within the vicinity of the stone.
It has since come to be known as the “suicide stone”.
