Bridgewater Triangle At a Glance

"Over the years, residents have recognized this particular area of the state for its strange and often sinister character and have taken to dubbing it "the Bridgewater Triangle." The triangle or Hockomock Swamp region covers an area of approximately 200-sqaure miles...UFO sightings, mysterious disappearances, creature sightings, or a high incidence of accidents, violence and crime have been labeled "triangles," the most famous  being the "Bermuda Triangle" The term triangle is a commonly accepted way of describing what researchers of strange phenomenon call a 'gateway or window' area which is focus of unexplained activity. The Bridgewater Triangle seems to have been one of the focal areas for a long time," "The Bridgewater Triangle," Boston Magazine, April 1980.

To drive through Bridgewater and its sister towns of East and West Bridgewater, you would never guess that beneath the surface of these  quiet country towns lies a kaleidoscope of secrets and mysteries. Its beautiful rivers including Town, Hockomock, Taunton and Matfield that meander through the land and the waters of Lake Nippenicket in Bridgewater sparkle in the sunlight like any other New England river and pond. They give no hint of the victims that their waters have inexplicably taken. The country roads seem like any other in the America. Except these roads have an extremely high rate of accidents, mostly unexplained. The smiles of the townspeople mask a silent truth: That suicides and insanity rates in these towns run mysteriously and shockingly high in this area of southeastern Massachusetts.

The Dighton Rock is a 40-ton boulder, originally located in the riverbed of the Taunton River at Berkley, Massachusetts. The rock is noted for its petroglyphs, carved designs of ancient and uncertain origin, and the controversy about their creators.

 The history of the Bridgewater Triangle is a dark one. This area of southeastern Massachusetts has always been a magnet for high strangeness, evil, bad fortune and mysterious events. Suicides, horrific car accidents, mysterious drownings and explosively violent murders plague this area. Hauntings are common. Strange creatures roam its woods and enigmatic rocks dot its landscape. The Bridgewater Triangle seems to be a window into another plane of existence, where just about anything can climb through. 

 Reports of run-ins with UFOs, entities both human and inhuman, cryptid creatures, and animals that simply do not belong. have all been recorded for centuries. Some of the country's most puzzling stone structures and sites appear in and around the area we call the Bridgewater Triangle. Mysterious boulders with strange carving like Dighton Rock and the Narragansett Rune Stone; astrologically aligned ancient stone sites such as King Philip's Cave in Sharon, Massachusetts and structures such as Mystery Tower in Newport, Rhode Island.

 
The answer to the enigma of who built "Mystery" or "Newport" tower
 has sparked debate for centuries. Knights Templar, Vikings, and even Benedict Arnold have all been proposed by scholars as the builders of this strange structure.  Mystery Tower is located in Newport, RI, roughly eighteen nautical miles from the southern borders of the Bridgewater Triangle and about 22 nautical miles from Dighton Rock.

Freetown Forest: Unidentified Floating Objects Descend From The Sky In 1942

Image
"None of the witnesses saw any "human forms," and one witness suggested perhaps it was parts of a plane that fell to the ground. But no plane parts were found. "None of the citizens reporting to police were certain that the objects floating down were human, but they were certain that "something" had descended over the Freetown and Assonet areas." What fell from the skies over Freetown Forest on the night of November 4, 1942? I don't know. And neither did the witnesses who saw the "objects" descending from the sky and down into the forest that night, nor did the police who investigated the incident. After receiving four separate reports that night from nervous citizens who witnessed the event, police took the indent very seriously.  Some witness described the objects as looking like parachutes. And why wouldn't they? It was the dawn of World War II and anything suspicious would certainly be percieved as relating to the war. It is

The Bridgewater Triangle Bigfoot & the Purple Laser Beam

Image
By Kristen Good John Stanga is in his mid-fifties now and far away from the Bridgewater Triangle, having settled in North Carolina as an adult. But not a day goes by where Stanga does not think of most bizarre night of his life, when he and childhood friend witnessed a double whammy of a Class A Bigfoot sighting followed by a strange purple beam that shot down from the sky in South Weymouth. (A location about three miles from the northern tip of the area delineated as "The Bridgewater Triangle. ") John Stanga contacted me in 2011 with the following account: “I want to relay this story about, for the lack of a better term, “Bigfoot” sighting me and my best friend Dave had in September 1972 in South Weymouth, Massachusetts. The date was Friday, Sept. 29, 1972 at about 7:30 pm. Dave and I were 14 years old at the time and had known each other since 1 st grade. What happened that night is as follows: Dave’s family just moved to a new neighborhood they

Troubled Waters: The Bridgewater Triangle's Infamous Lake Nippenicket

Image
Lake Nippenicket ( or “The Nip” for short) is 354-acres of extreme high strangeness. The Nip straddles Bridgewater and Raynham, and is located on the boundary line of Plymouth and Bristol counties. Cryptic creatures, spectral fires, Native American ghosts, UFOs and other unusual sightings have all been seen here at Lake Nip, a body of water that holds a mysterious history of accidents and drownings. For decades, this lake has held the reputation of stealing the lives people too young to die. With an average depth of a mere three feet—and just six feet at its deepest point—The Nip’s  morbid history of drowning certainly is one of The Nip’s biggest mysteries.  It seems as though Lake Nippenicket is a a place where anything can happen. The skies over The Nip are a favorite hangout for UFOs, and those same strange skies over the lake have rained frogs on at least on Alien pods? No, just a bryazoan, a rare organism that  survived the ice age which made an appearance in Lake Nip i
