S20 Ep119: Wicked Strange: Your Guide to Ghosts, Monsters. Oddities, & Urban Legends from New England w/Jeff Belanger

Darkness Radio Presents: Wicked Strange: Your Guide to Ghosts, Monsters. Oddities, & Urban Legends from New England with Researcher/Podcast Host/ Author, Jeff Belanger!

Wicked Strange is a journey and a celebration of all the things that make New England like no other place on earth. In a time when so much of the world is becoming homogenized—as big-box stores and chain restaurants move in and so many communities lose their identity—we still have these legends. They belong to specific towns and streets. These are stories locals will share with you . . . if they trust you.  This travel guide takes readers on a journey to the strange and frequently unseen world that is often right under their noses. Covering numerous haunted places, environs where mysterious creatures have been spotted, areas where unusual events have happened, eccentric locals, and roadside oddities to explore, noted expert of the strange Jeff Belanger is your guide to all that’s local and strange. Haunted locations from all over New England are covered

New England is full of monsters and devils that lurk in the woods, lakes, and seas. Explored are some of the best known and most obscure, including Lake Champlain’s Champ; the Cumberland Vampire of Rhode Island; Gloucester’s Sea Serpent; the Black Dog of West Peak in Meriden, Connecticut; and the Flying Moose of Maine. Also covered are unusual events, such as UFO sightings (Connecticut’s UFO crash at Bantam Lake / Betty and Barney Hill’s UFO experience), and roadside oddities, such as the World’s Tallest Filing Cabinet (Burlington, VT), Boston’s Big Steaming Tea Kettle, and the literal Fork in the Road of Westport, MA.  Wicked Strange takes you off the beaten path, revealing a hidden world right under your nose.

Jeff joins Darkness Radio today to tell us a few of the terrific tales that lie behind the six states of New England! Jeff also recalls how he met he co-creator, Frank Grace and what makes their collaboration on this and other projects in the New England Legends series so special throughout the years!
