Legends of New England

[@marginbuu212]

The Wood Devil isn't that bad. It kinda just wants to be left alone. Lives in the woods and screams at people who wander too close. Relatable.

[@rogueascendant6611]

Named as a Devil but it doesn't stalk and hunt its preys like Hidebehind - which is more terrifying to what it does.

[@mrdude88]

That’s so sad. The Wood Devil wasn’t always anti-social. Something broke it’s heart and it no longer trust anything. But if it just learn to open it’s heart, it will heal and trust again. Wait, no. If it begin to trust again, a human will exploit it, maybe our it in a zoo, or donate it’s corpse to science.

[@fevergaming1]

Was taking a dump while camping once . Right when I was about to drop a duece, the wood devil jumped out and screamed at me. Talk about being scared shitless.

[@johngrzegorzyk6236]

I've seen the black dog in Meridan CT. While at the tower in Hubbard park. I was sitting on the tailgate of my pickup with my girlfriend at the time, who was a top less dancer who called herself Peaches (real name Nancy). No one else was up there because it was closing time at the park. The dog was across the parking lot, sitting down watching us. I had heard the legend, but at the time, I didn't put two and two together. I love dogs always have so I tried to coax it over to see if it had a tag and was lost. It just stared.... I got up and started across the parking lot. When I got closer, I remember thinking his eyes were very red looking, but being a bit color blind I gave it little thought. Once I got a little closer, it turned and ran back into the woods. Funny thing it seemed to disappear before it hit the tree line and that's what convinced me I saw the black dog......ps never again did I go back to Hubbard park

[@johannamcfarland3602]

Crazy! Glad you are safe.

[@christopher7042]

I'm from Niantic. Where are you located?

[@brendadrew834]

Fascinating, thank you. This born in Boston and bred Yankee New Englander with deep roots here since 1721, pre-revolutionary war, lives in NH and have always heard this region was haunted! I've never experienced any of these legends, but I spent summers on Cape Cod at my late grandmother's house built in 1776, in the 1950s and 60s while growing up. In 1978, both my late father and step-mother, my husband and I were sitting in the front parlor when all of a sudden we heard human adult footsteps upstairs where my grandmother's bedroom and another bedroom were under the eaves! No one was up there except my first born daughter who was asleep in her portacrib. I had left the light on since she wasn't familiar with sleeping there. When I went upstairs to check on her, she was awake and smiling even before she saw me! I figured she was either looking at my grandmother or late mother's spirit and my mother had grown up in the house from 1917! I'm psychic and have seen and heard signs from the Other Side! One just needs to be open about it! The Dover Demon reminds me of Gollum in Tolkein's Lord of the Ring trilogy! Nantucket is also famous for being very haunted! Anywhere where past spirits have lived and died often in tragedies! May they all rest in peace~💜💜💜

[@johnhealey6170]

I was around the night of the Dover Demon story. I knew all of the witnesses. There are inaccuracies in this video. Billy Bartlett didn’t return home. There was a big house party in Sherborn. Billy showed up with his friends with the sketch already completed. He showed it to me. He was seemingly excited and claimed to have seen this creature. I had driven by the spot of the sighting some 10-15 minutes before and saw a couple of police cruisers and officers looking at a white sheet or towel, illuminated by their headlights. We assumed someone had hit a dog and they had covered it. That is odd, but plausible.

[@teyanuputorti7927]

[@mikehughes4969]

I have been researching and investigating ghosts, cryptids and the paranormal in general for forty years, and coming across legends I haven't heard before is something of a rarity for me these days. I've heard of the Dover demon before, but the rest are all new for me. Thanks for that. Going to have to crack down on my research.👍

[@richewilson6394]

The last story with the bride is almost the same story as in coastal Maine There is a town I can't remember offhand but there's a hill that is known as Catherine's Hill. Where a young bride back in the middle of the time of the logging boom had died with her husband on their way to Bar harbor, she ended up either losing her head or just dying from hitting a tree. She hitchhikes The road that is a winding road to a hill if you don't pick her up you are going to die on that road. I saw it on the weather channel's America's supernatural got to watch and wish that there was a second season.

[@sgh1132]

Pretty sure it's in Cherryfield, on the Blacks Wood's Road, Rte 182. Pretty drive starting in Hancock, past Tunk Lake in Sullivan and on up to Cherryfield. Yeah, wouldn't want to drive it at night, for sure!

I grew up next town over from Dover, never knew there was a legend associated with it, but I can see why. Dover is a town of eerie dense forests with huge mansions hidden behind them.

[@trackerjacker0013]

I’ll tell ya. I’ve been away from this station way too long. I love this stuff! The most freaky for me was the sea serpent. When my gran told me about Nessie, she’s a native Scot, an after watching leviathan and jaws with my brothers as a kid, nothin freaks me out faster than open deep water. Never know what’s there. Good job covering the landscape and it’s takes. Now I’ll go get current so we can continue.

Here in Greenfield, MA we have Eunice Williams. She was a captive from old Deerfield who died on the original Mohawk Trail. There is a covered bridge dedicated to her crossing the Green River. It has been said she haunts the woods near by. The locals go "cruising for Eunice" in hopes of a glimps.

[@judd0112]

The colonists were all massacred. Greenfield massacre. Thats should have its own video.

[@Tarathathe77wookiee]

I wonder if the "Wood Devil" is the wild man known as a "Woodwose/wodewose"? There are carvings of them on really old English buildings. They are shown to be hairy wild men.

[@thenarrator869]

Midcoast Maine here. We always had the screecher story. Basically a mythical being that could hunt you in the woods at night. You'd hear a screech first.

I read about this in a book called Weird US way back in like 2005 when I was on a trip going hiking in new England. Me and the fam tried to find it we were definitely in the general area but couldnt find any landmarks that shower we actually found the town. Have you ever tried to find it?

[@christopherbanks581]

​@theodorejenkins6066 my friends and I went there once and it's definitely an eerie place.. after the Blair witch project the state police patrol it regularly.. also the Warren's from the conjuring movies there house is in Shelton CT I think.. Connecticut is literally one of the most haunted states in the country

[@kellyshea7716]

I went about 25 years ago. It's very creepy; there's no noise in that woods. No birds, no wind in the leaves, nothing. You feel an oppressive foreboding when you're going up the road. Wouldn't ever go back.

[@berja3895]

I'm from Vermont and I can attest to the fact that the St. Agnes statue itself has a really weird vibe, along with the space close around it. Legend has it that if you sit on it, you will have 7 years of bad luck, misfortune, strange illnesses, almost as if everything you touch either breaks completely apart or you lose things-misplace things, cannot find them so you give up, go in another room & what you were looking for 's right there. This 'crap luck' happens for years.

I used to swim to wood island regularly as a kid. My family had property on the beach across the water from it since the 1930s. It was a really cool island to explore.

[@bradleymiles671]

His older brother and himself were going home around 9pm up a hill my father was following his older brother who was around 13yrs old when he looked back and saw a black puppy following them as they kept walking my dad looked back again at this time the dog was much bigger. He elbow his brother to lock back but my uncle ignore him and they kept on walking when they arrive close to get in tge door that's when my uncle notice tge huge black dog with red eyes he threw my dad inside the house and locked the door behind him. They were shaking they told my grandad what they saw and grandad said he believe them. He had seen it too!

How would Bram Stoker have heard of Mercy Brown? He lived in Ireland and I’m not sure about the time window between her death and his publishing Dracula in 1897. Not sure if 5 years could be enough time for him to have heard about her, then do additional research and several drafts of his novel then finally publishing it. (Also, maybe the Haynesville ghost bride is like the American version of the Japanese Yuki Onna.)

[@MythologyUnleashed]

Bram Stoker would have learned about Mercy Brown's incident through newspaper articles, he did extensive research on vampire folklore from Europe and America when he was writing Dracula. The character of Lucy was heavily based on Mercy Brown!

Edward Rowe Snow was a Boston historian from Winthrop, Massachusetts. He wrote extensively about all kids of tales. The Masse duel which took place at Fort Independence inspired Edgar Allan Poe”s “ Cask of Amontillado.” Boston Harbor has several ghost stories. There is “ The Lady in Black who is seen on George’s Island’s Fort Warren looking for her husband, and two brothers who were lighthouse keepers at Minot’s Light and were washed away to sea during a hurricane. Boston’s North End has a several ghosts from a molasses tragedy that took several people and their horses. GOD Bless!

A have done a ton of Block Island research and it seems that some of the ships were lured into crashing onto the island so the villagers could pillage the boats, in the case of the Palatine, they used goats to create the illusion that the North Lighthouse was further back than it was, causing the boat the hit land. the villagers pillaged the boat, using parts of it for buildings and homes, before setting the ship on fire and sending it out to sea.

About the black dog of the hanging hills- I met it once, on the trail. I was hiking with my family up to Castle Craig on Father’s Day and this little black dog appears in front of me. I think, oh! It’s a dog! And keep on hiking. I make it up to the castle and meet with my family and we walk back down. We get in the car and we go out for ice cream. A couple years later I stumble upon this story. They say the first time you see the dog it brings joy. The second, sorrow. The third, Death. I shudder to think about what would have happened if I had seen the dog two more times.
