The Eerie Creatures of the Haunted Bridgewater Triangle - The UFOs







Eerie Creatures of the Haunted Bridgewater Triangle - UFOs


What is the Bridgewater Triangle?
A group of 17 towns and cities in Southeastern Massachusetts in the New England region of the United States. The area has seen massive amounts of hauntings, UFO sightings, ghastly creatures, and satanic cult activity dating back to colonial times.
When the Europeans first came to America, they killed off millions of Native Americans with two things they carried with them: muskets and diseases.  The indigenous people had few defenses for either one.  With his dying breath one of the Wampanoag chiefs cast a perpetual curse on both the people and the land of the Bridgewater Triangle.  Some researchers believe that might be the reason for the spate of problems that have plagued the region for the last four hundred years!

The UFO Sightings
Appropriately the very first recorded UFO sighting in the Bridgewater Triangle was in Bridgewater itself.  The whole town got excited one morning when a strange vibrating noise was heard in the sky.  Bewilderment from that racket was soon forgotten when something even more astounding happened.  A hulking, glowing white sphere floated between the clouds.  From the phantom orb, a great light shined down upon the village.  The rays emitted by the sphere were so strong that they cast shadows upon the roadways, though they were already bathed in full sun.  

No, it was not an airplane or a satellite, for such things had not been invented when this sighting took place. It was more than 300 years ago in 1710. The object was viewed by many people. The phenomenon was duly recorded in the Boston News-Letter, the first newspaper in the British Colonies of the New World, which began publication in 1704.

The most famous and credible UFO sightings in the triangle are much more recent.  Some of the newer sightings were in the sky above Raynham, a town that shares a border with Bridgewater.  

Hundreds of people near the Raynham Dog Racing track reported seeing a bright light in the sky moving across the night sky in 1979.  What bolsters the credence of this sighting is that two of the observers were respected, veteran newsmen from Boston radio station WHDH.
  
Both men still work in broadcasting.  Steve Sbraccia is currently a reporter for a major TV outlet in Raleigh, North Carolina.  Jerry Lopes is president of a radio network.  Back in 1979 they worked together at WHDH.

One night they were driving back from an assignment when they spotted something in the sky near the race track, which is near the paranormal hotspot, the Hockomock Swamp. They got out of the car.  Other cars had pulled over and people were looking up at the strange light in the sky.

In the Bridgewater Triangle Documentary film, Steve Sbraccia said,
“we saw this, this thing coming at us with this very bright light….it passed directly overhead. It was as big as three Boeing 707s, wingtip to wingtip. It hovered for a couple of minutes, and then it took off.”

Steve said the object was shaped like home plate on a baseball field.  He saw it two more times in two other locations.  Newspaper reports in the Brockton Enterprise and other outlets confirmed that many people had seen the UFOs and their description matched that provided by Steve and Jerry. 

Though I saw a Puckwudgie in the same area, I have never seen a UFO.  One of my sons however, has seen eerie tree lighting in the woods surrounding a pond at the edge of the swamp.

He said that on three separate occasions he has been in the woods at night and seen whole sections of the trees glowing with an eerie white light.  Not bright, the illumination was faint.  He said they looked like giant glow sticks using up the last of their energy.  They had a dim but discernable light. One tree, he said, might not even have been noticeable, but when 75 or a hundred trees have the same dim glow, it’s very unsettling.

In the daylight he examined the trees to see if they had moss or lichen that could have been the reason for their illumination.  There was however, no moss on the trees and no rational explanation for the glowing effect – except for the fact that they are growing and glowing in “The Bridgewater Triangle”.
