00:04And what if I told you that there is another triangle which, if it is less known, is only more disturbing?
00:09The Bridgewater Triangle, located in Massachusetts, is a small but intense home of paranormal activity.
00:18It was in 1983 that the cryptozoologist Loren Coleman named this area of 520 square kilometers,
00:25delimited by the sinister cities of Abington, Rehoboth and Freetown.
00:31Inside these borders are other cities, including Bridgewater, hence its name.
00:37For those who have the courage to visit it, there is even a guide detailing its most frightening sites.
00:44You can start your journey by the King Philip's Cave, or the King Philip's Cave in Norton.
00:50Legend has it that the chief of the Wampanoag, Metacomet, stayed there during his rebellion against the British in the 16th century.
00:58Today, some swear to have seen spectral lights accompanied by phantom drums.
01:05But if ghost hunting is not your thing, why not take a look at the Okomoc swamp, located in the heart of this same triangle?
01:13They claim to have seen everything around this lake, from Bigfoot to the most gigantic birds and snakes.
01:19Strange rumors about fires and ghost lights will also give you a cold back.
01:24A real festival of the paranormal.
01:27And if you prefer the terrifying stories of real life, it is at the Stone of Bridgewater that you have to take a leap.
01:34Nestled on the banks of the Nuncatecet River, this stone bears a captivating story dating back to the 1800s.
01:40A pastor once engraved a mysterious poem on this stone, and over the years, it has become a favorite place for ghost hunters and history enthusiasts.
01:51Located in Australia, the Monte Cristo Homestead looks like a nice house from the outside, but the appearances can be misleading.
01:59Behind these doors are hidden sinister stories that earned it the reputation of being the most haunted house on the continent.
02:06Originally, it belonged to Christopher Crowley, who had made a fortune in the hotel in Junee.
02:13Dark events occurred between the walls of the Monte Cristo property.
02:18The Crowley family lived in this Victorian-style mansion, perched at the top of a hill overlooking the city.
02:24The tragedy began with Christopher's death in 1910, then that of his wife Elizabeth in 1933.
02:30After the departure of the family in 1948, the house fell apart and was abandoned.
02:38Later, the Ryan family bought the property and began to restore it.
02:44But they soon discovered that they were not alone.
02:47Strange phenomena occurred, the visit of animals with unusual behavior, the appearance of mysterious lights and ghostly silhouettes,
02:56which led the Ryans to say that the house was haunted.
03:00According to the legend, at least ten spirits wander in the corridors of Monte Cristo.
03:05You have the choice.
03:07A young child that a nurse dropped on the stairs,
03:11a servant who fell from a balcony,
03:14or a squire who tragically died in a fire.
03:17The most active spirit is the guardian's son, who was discovered next to his deceased mother,
03:22and who had remained chained for four decades.
03:25Today, the house has been transformed into a guest room,
03:27where you can have dinner and take a guided tour to discover all the details of its dark history.

05:16and who occurs regularly in front of an invisible audience before volatilizing.
05:21It is said that her ghost hovers everywhere in the theatre,
05:24that she sings and slams the doors in the background.
05:27Although these rumours may not be confirmed,
05:29the 200 years of history of the theatre leave much to be desired.

07:07Designed in the 11th century as a fortress,
07:10it has welcomed over the centuries the most illustrious visitors.
07:13But this is where things get really interesting.
07:16Apparently, the place would be haunted by the Green Lady.
07:19According to the rumor, she was the daughter of King Charles VII,
07:23and her story ended tragically in the 15th century,
07:27when her husband assassinated her for being unfaithful.
