The Bridgewater Triangle is an approximately 200-square-mile area in southeastern Massachusetts, known for a high concentration of alleged paranormal phenomena. The term was coined by cryptozoologist Loren Coleman in the 1970s.

Within this "triangle," defined by the towns of Abington, Freetown, and Rehoboth, a wide array of strange occurrences have been reported, including:

• UFOs and anomalous lights: Sightings of unidentified flying objects, often described as balls of light or unusual aircraft.
• Cryptid sightings: Reports of creatures not typically found in the region, such as Bigfoot-like humanoids, giant snakes, and "Thunderbirds" (large, bird-like creatures).
• Ghosts and poltergeists: Accounts of hauntings, apparitions, and other spectral phenomena in various locations, including Bridgewater State University and the Taunton State Hospital.
• Cult activity and animal mutilations: Incidents of animal sacrifices and ritualistic mutilations have been reported, particularly in the Freetown-Fall River State Forest, which is also associated with a history of gangland murders and suicides.
• Native American legends: Many of the reported phenomena are tied to the region's Native American history, particularly the Wampanoag people. The Hockomock Swamp, a central feature of the triangle, translates to "place where spirits dwell" in Algonquin and is believed to be a sacred burial ground. Some legends suggest that the area is cursed due to conflicts with colonial settlers or the loss of a revered Wampanoag wampum belt. Another creature from Algonquian folklore, the Pukwudgie, a mischievous "little people", is also said to inhabit the area.

Key hotspots within the Bridgewater Triangle include the vast Hockomock Swamp and the Freetown-Fall River State Forest. While many of the stories are folklore, the sheer volume and diversity of alleged paranormal events have made the Bridgewater Triangle a well-known location for paranormal enthusiasts and researchers.

Come along for the tale of Sam The Alien Robot Ghost Clown. What was it? An interdimensional being? A ghost? Or nothing at all?!?!

Sam the Sandown Ghost Clown is a bizarre and mysterious figure from one of the UK's strangest alleged paranormal encounters. The story originates from a report published in the 1970s in a British paranormal magazine called Bufora Journal, which is associated with the British UFO Research Association (BUFORA). It is one of the most surreal accounts in British folklore and fringe paranormal lore.

• Date: May 1973
• Location: Sandown, Isle of Wight, England
• Witnesses: Two children, a boy and a girl (approximately 7 years old)

While playing near a golf course close to the Sandown Airport, the two children reportedly heard a strange wailing or siren-like noise. Investigating the sound, they crossed a wooden footbridge over a stream and encountered a strange being.

They described the figure as:

• Over 7 feet tall
• Very thin
• Wearing a strange, patchwork outfit
• Having a white face with a red triangle on it
• Sporting glove-like hands and wooden-sounding feet
• Moving with jerky, mechanical motions

He did not act threateningly—instead, he seemed friendly but extremely odd.

The entity didn't speak at first but later communicated with the children using a small notebook. Eventually, he began speaking in a garbled voice. He told them:

• His name was "Sam"
• He was not human
• He lived in a metal hut (or structure) partially hidden by brush and grass
• He had no name for his species
• He described himself as a "ghost" but also as something more alien or interdimensional

He invited the children into his home, where they observed strange furniture and devices. He even offered them food (which they declined).

The children told their parents about the encounter. One of the parents believed them enough to contact BUFORA, and the story was eventually published. The children’s names were never released publicly, and the story was primarily reported from the perspective of one of the children via the parent.

Despite its eerie nature, no other sightings of Sam have ever been reported.

Theories about Sam include:

• An alien entity or interdimensional being
• A ghost or elemental spirit
• A hallucination or fabricated story
• A misinterpreted event involving a performer, recluse, or local eccentric

Because it is so unique and deeply strange, Sam the Sandown Ghost Clown has achieved near-mythic status in fringe and internet folklore circles. It defies easy categorization—unlike typical alien abduction or ghost stories.

Sam has become a creepy folklore figure in the paranormal community. He's been covered in:

• Podcasts like The Unexplained and Monsters Among Us
• YouTube channels exploring cryptids and high strangeness
• Internet horror and "liminal" storytelling spaces

Come along as we discuss the legendary island of Hy Brasil.

Hy-Brasil (also spelled Hy-Brasil, Hy Breasail, or simply Brasil) is a legendary island said to lie in the Atlantic Ocean, west of Ireland. It appears in Irish mythology and maritime lore as a mysterious, often vanishing land, and has intrigued mapmakers, explorers, and storytellers for centuries. Here's a detailed overview:

• Etymology: The name Hy-Brasil likely comes from the Irish “Uí Breasail,” meaning “descendants (or clan) of Bresal,” an ancient Irish clan. It has no connection to the modern country of Brazil, despite the similar name.
• It was sometimes referred to as the "Isle of the Blessed" and was associated with paradise-like qualities.

• In Irish myth, Hy-Brasil was a hidden island, often shrouded in mist and only visible once every seven years—though even when visible, it could not be reached.
• It was described as a place of great beauty and abundance, sometimes even as a utopian society or a land of advanced knowledge and technology.
• Some versions of the legend say it was home to wise sages or priests with powerful secrets.

• Hy-Brasil began appearing on medieval maps as early as the 14th century, often west of Ireland or southwest of Galway Bay.
• It was included on several well-known maps:
  • The 1325 portolan chart by Angelo Dalorto
  • The 1375 Catalan Atlas
  • As late as the 1800s, some maps still included it, sometimes depicted as a circular island split by a river.

• Over the centuries, several explorers claimed to have seen or tried to visit Hy-Brasil.
• In 1674, Captain John Nisbet, sailing from France to Ireland, allegedly encountered the island and described it as inhabited and fertile.
• Other 17th-century reports added to the myth, suggesting that travelers who reached it were granted knowledge or returned with riches.

• Lost Island Theory: Some speculate Hy-Brasil could be a memory of a real island that has since sunk, or a misidentified location like the Porcupine Bank (a submerged plateau west of Ireland).
• Paranormal & UFO Lore: In 1980, Hy-Brasil was mentioned in the Rendlesham Forest UFO incident, where a map reportedly shown to one witness (under hypnosis) contained coordinates matching the supposed location of Hy-Brasil—adding to its modern mystery appeal.

• The island has inspired works in literature, music, and art, symbolizing the unreachable ideal, a lost civilization, or mystical knowledge.
• It continues to appear in fantasy and speculative fiction as a place of wonder and enigma.

• The officer said he shot and killed the being when it didn’t comply with his orders.
• The body allegedly fell near McGuire AFB, adjacent to Fort Dix.
• A security lockdown was initiated, and a special unit supposedly arrived to recover the body.

• The case was publicized years later by UFO researcher Leonard Stringfield, who cited anonymous sources within the military.
