The Bridgewater Triangle
Posted by: Loren Coleman on June 7th, 2010
Looking to lose yourself on your next vacation? Check out this enjoyable tourist spot. Looking to disappear? Think no farther than Massachusetts’ Bridgewater Triangle. Talking about being out-of-touch during your holiday. You might do it literally there, as you run into various cryptids and more.
The “Bridgewater Triangle” is another one of those phrases I coined; for more see Mysterious America: The Ultimate Guide to the Nation’s Weirdest Wonders, Strangest Spots, and Creepiest Creatures.
Since my first investigations, various enhancements of the investigations have occurred.
Here’s one map that leaves out the cryptids, but highlights other bizarre elements of the area.
This is another map of the Bridgewater Triangle.
The cultural wave of Bridgewater Triangle art can also be seen below in these three examples from Mark Phelan, who gives life to the giant avian report from the area (although he makes it reptilian). Nevermind, after all, it is interpretative popular cultural art.
About Loren Coleman
Loren Coleman is one of the world’s leading cryptozoologists, some say “the” leading living cryptozoologist. Certainly, he is acknowledged as the current living American researcher and writer who has most popularized cryptozoology in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Starting his fieldwork and investigations in 1960, after traveling and trekking extensively in pursuit of cryptozoological mysteries, Coleman began writing to share his experiences in 1969. An honorary member of Ivan T. Sanderson’s Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained in the 1970s, Coleman has been bestowed with similar honorary memberships of the North Idaho College Cryptozoology Club in 1983, and in subsequent years, that of the British Columbia Scientific Cryptozoology Club, CryptoSafari International, and other international organizations. He was also a Life Member and Benefactor of the International Society of Cryptozoology (now-defunct).
Loren Coleman’s daily blog, as a member of the Cryptomundo Team, served as an ongoing avenue of communication for the ever-growing body of cryptozoo news from 2005 through 2013. He returned as an infrequent contributor beginning Halloween week of 2015.
Coleman is the founder in 2003, and current director of the International Cryptozoology Museum in Portland, Maine.
Very inviting, but what’s the latest from the Triangle? What’s goin’ on there NOW? Is anybody doin’ the BT Boogie?
I recommend Rehoboth for any paranormal study, it’s a really haunted town…..man I want to move back there…..wish I wasn’t stuck in Attleboro… -_-
This place is the bomb, take it from someone who lives there (well, just outside of it, that is). My family has noted seeing Mothmans, “Jersey Devils”, Mutant Canines, UFOs, and lots of paranormal stuff (in or near Holbrook). Although I’ve never been to Hockamock Swamp, I hear its packed with cryptids like the Pukwudgies, Sasquatches, and stuff like that. There are TONS of haunted houses around here. The whole area is also a hotspot for UFOs. Plus, there were those new sightings of alligators in Brockton.
I’m in the triangle, lol ^_^
