Let's Get Haunted

Welcome to Episode 274: The Bennington Triangle, Part II (The Disappearances & Folklore)! On this week’s episode, we finish our 2 part series on the Bennington Triangle, one of the most mysterious regions of the United States. In Vermont’s Bennington Triangle, it’s not unusual to have strange encounters with the paranormal: from strange lights in the sky to mysterious shadow entities on the ground, this area has a rich history of indigenous folklore involving man-eating rocks and cursed land full of evil monsters. This week, we take a look at the mysterious missing persons cases of Middie Rivers (1945), Paula Welden (1946), James Tedford (1949), Paul Jepson (1950), and Frieda Langer (1950). How did these 5 people vanish in a 5 year period and what happened to them? Was it just an unlucky coincidence? Or is some sinister force lurking in the shadows of Glastenbury Mountain’s Long Trail?

Welcome to Episode 273: The Bennington Triangle (Ghosts, Aliens, Vampires, Bigfoot, & Murder)! Above a thick canopy of broadleaf trees protrudes Glastenbury Mountain. Located in southwestern Vermont’s Green Mountain National Forest, this 3,700-foot landmark is nestled in the center of a mysterious region that has come to be known as The Bennington Triangle. Within the bounds of the Bennington Triangle, ghostly apparitions appear in the thick fog, whispering warnings to hikers who dare brave the paths leading to the mountain’s peak; dark triangular UFOs hover over the streams that snake their way down the granite rocks before disappearing into darkened thickets; and from 1945 to 1950, 5 people vanished into what some speculate is an interdimensional portal, never to be seen or heard from again. On today’s episode of Let’s Get Haunted, we get lost in the eerie stillness of Vermont’s Bennington Triangle: clawing our way past the brambles, plugging our ears from the noise of beckoning ghosts, and dodging brilliant beams of light cast down from alien aircraft above. Will we make it out of this episode alive? Join us on this week’s story to find out.

Welcome to Episode 272 of Let’s Get Haunted! Florida’s largest and oldest psychiatric hospital has been called many things: an asylum, a prison, a hospital, and, according to some, one of the most haunted places in the state. LET’S GO WAY DOWN YONDER TO Chattahoochee, Florida(????) to investigate the disturbing history of Florida State Hospital!! What began as a military arsenal became an institution that would house thousands of psychiatric patients, incarcerated people, and some of Florida’s most vulnerable residents. We dig into allegations of abuse and neglect, overcrowded wards, controversial treatments, deaths on the property, and the landmark lawsuit that exposed conditions inside the hospital. Then, obviously, we get haunted. From reports of shadow figures and disembodied voices to the stories surrounding the hospital’s old buildings and cemetery, we’re asking the question we always ask: if a place holds enough suffering, does some of it stay behind? Buckle up, bc we are talking hooch!
