  • BWBS Ep:133 The Bennington Triangle
    Sep 21 2025
    In the shadow of Vermont's Glastenbury Mountain lies one of New England's most enduring mysteries, a dark chapter in American history that begins with a simple walk in the woods that ended in oblivion. On November 12, 1945, Middie Rivers, a 74-year-old hunting guide who knew the wilderness like the back of his weathered hands, told his companions he'd walk ahead to their camp. He never arrived. His disappearance would mark the beginning of a five-year period during which five people would vanish in the same remote area of southwestern Vermont, leaving behind grieving families, baffled search parties, and questions that remain unanswered to this day.This episode delves deep into the haunting history of what author Joseph Citro would later christen the Bennington Triangle, exploring not just the famous disappearances but the centuries of strangeness that preceded them. We begin with the ancient Abenaki people, who considered the mountain cursed and warned of a place where the four winds met in eternal struggle, where a malevolent stone could swallow the unwary whole. Their oral traditions speak of the mountain as sacred and dangerous in equal measure, a dwelling place of their god Tabaldak and home to creatures that walked upright like men but were something altogether different. The narrative traces the doomed attempts at settlement from Benning Wentworth's blind charter in 1761 through the brutal logging era that briefly brought prosperity and violence to the mountain. We examine the murders that stained the settlement's history, including the chilling 1892 killing of John Crowley by Henry McDowell, who claimed voices in his head commanded him to kill, and who later escaped from a mental hospital to vanish as completely as the mountain's later victims. The story follows Glastenbury's transformation from a rough logging town to a failed tourist resort, destroyed by flooding after just one season, and ultimately to Vermont's first unincorporated town, legally erased from existence in 1937.The heart of our investigation focuses on the five disappearances that would make the Bennington Triangle infamous. We explore each case in detail, from Paula Welden, the Bennington College sophomore whose vanishing in a bright red jacket inspired massive searches and the creation of the Vermont State Police, to James Tedford, whose impossible disappearance from a moving bus full of witnesses defies all rational explanation. We examine young Paul Jepson, the special needs child who spoke of nothing but the mountains for days before vanishing from his mother's truck, and Frieda Langer, the experienced hiker whose body mysteriously appeared seven months later in an area that had been thoroughly searched.Throughout the narrative, we weave together the various theories that have emerged over the decades to explain these disappearances.From the possibility of a serial killer stalking the mountain trails to indigenous legends of the Bennington Monster, from interdimensional portals and time slips to the more prosaic but no less terrifying reality of a wilderness that simply doesn't want human presence. We explore how the mountain's unusual geology, with its disorienting wind patterns and hidden sinkholes, might create natural traps that could swallow hikers without a trace.The episode also examines the cultural impact of the Bennington Triangle, from Shirley Jackson's psychological horror novel "Hangsaman" to modern paranormal investigations and the continuing reports of strange experiences on Glastenbury Mountain. We discuss contemporary encounters, including hikers who report inexplicable disorientation, time distortions, and the overwhelming feeling of being watched by something in the dense forest.We also take a look at recent incidents like the 2008 case of Robert Singley, who became lost on the same trail where Paula Welden vanished despite modern equipment and clear weather, finding the landscape seemed to change around him as he walked. Drawing from historical documents, newspaper archives, census records, and indigenous oral traditions, this comprehensive investigation presents the most complete picture possible of the Bennington Triangle mystery.We explore how a place that once housed 241 souls now officially contains just eight residents, how the forest has reclaimed most traces of human habitation, and how the mountain continues to exert its strange influence on those who venture onto its slopes.This is more than just a true crime story or a collection of ghost tales. It's an exploration of how landscapes can become legendary, how unexplained tragedies transform into folklore, and how some mysteries endure precisely because they resist solution.The Bennington Triangle stands as a reminder that even in our mapped and measured world, there remain places where people can simply step off the path and vanish forever, where the line between the possible and impossible becomes as twisted and unclear as a trail ...

  • BWBS Ep:132 Skinwalker Ranch
    Sep 17 2025
    Tonight journey into the heart of northeastern Utah's most enigmatic location, where for centuries the impossible has been commonplace. This comprehensive exploration of Skinwalker Ranch traces its mysterious history from ancient Native American warnings about cursed ground through to today's cutting-edge scientific investigations.

    We examine the terrifying experiences of the Sherman family whose encounters with bulletproof wolves and vanishing cattle brought modern attention to the ranch, and follow the multi-million dollar investigation launched by billionaire Robert Bigelow that documented phenomena defying our understanding of physics.

    We also get into how the ranch has become a focal point for government interest, including classified military programs studying its potential for breakthrough technologies and threats to national security. Under current owner Brandon Fugal's stewardship, new discoveries continue to challenge our fundamental assumptions about reality, from the detection of metamaterials with impossible properties to the documentation of portals opening to other dimensions.

    We explore the profound human cost of investigating these phenomena, including mysterious injuries, psychological impacts, and the disturbing "hitchhiker effect" that follows researchers home.This episode weaves together eyewitness accounts, scientific data, and indigenous knowledge to present the most complete picture yet of a place that exists at the intersection of science and the supernatural.

    Whether the phenomena represent interdimensional incursions, time anomalies, or something beyond our current ability to comprehend, Skinwalker Ranch stands as humanity's most confounding mystery and perhaps our gateway to understanding that we are not alone in a universe far stranger than we ever imagined.

  • BWBS Ep:131 The Weight of Silence
    Sep 12 2025
    In this haunting episode, we present a forty-year-old confession from an anonymous Marine who encountered something in the Northern California wilderness that changed his life forever. During a routine training exercise in the Marble Mountain Wilderness in 1983, six Marines came face to face with creatures that shouldn't exist, leading to a violent confrontation that would haunt the sole narrator for the rest of his days.

    His account, shared here for the first time since his death, details not just the encounter itself but the decades of guilt, nightmares, and questions that followed. From mysterious howls in the night to massive footprints around their camp, from the intelligence in the creature's eyes to the anguish of a mother holding her child while looking at her dead mate, this story challenges everything we think we know about what lives in our forests.

    The Marine's testimony doesn't end with that terrible day in California. Years later, during a hunting trip in Alaska, he would have another encounter, this one peaceful but no less profound, that would cement his belief that these beings deserve to be left alone. His plea from beyond the grave is simple but powerful: let them be. But the story doesn't end there. In an epilogue, a researcher who has spent almost forty years investigating these creatures and conducting nearly a thousand interviews reflects on receiving the Marine's account and what it means for those who seek the truth. Should the existence of these beings be proven to science, potentially dooming them to exploitation and extinction?

    Or should their secret be kept while their habitat disappears around them? The researcher's struggle with this impossible choice reveals that sometimes the most profound mysteries are not about finding answers, but about learning to live with the weight of questions that may have no right answer.This episode contains mature themes including violence, death, and explores the moral complexity of humanity's relationship with the unknown.
