For all those who are interested, there is a UFO and paranormal "hot spot" in Massachusetts. This area, known as the Bridgewater Triangle, is centered around the Hockomock Swamp in Bridgewater and includes the Freetown/Fall River State Forest and Dighton Rock State Park. UFOs are frequently seen there, often by people driving along Rte. 44. Reported sightings go back to the 1700's, and there have been many sightings in recent decades. Bigfoot creatures have been seen there repeatedly for years, usually entering or exiting the swamp, or creeping along its borders. In the 1970s, the State Police staged a hunt for Bigfoot, calling it a "giant bear", though no bears live in the area! Giant birds, panthers, dogs, and other animals have also been reported. Native Americans have long considered the area haunted or sacred. They tell many legends about the swamp, which they call "evil spirit place". Paranormal events have been associated with their saced sites, such as an ancient burial ground in the swamp, and Indian Rock. Additionally, Dighton Rock is a perplexing archaological enigma. Its strange carvings are believed by some to be traces of visits by Europeans long before Columbus arrived. The news media have reported many cattle mutilations in the State Forest, attributing them to Satanic cults, though no suspects have been named. Ghosts, spook lights, and witches have also been reported, and Route 44 alone boasts 2 haunting entities.
