Human beings are beautiful, complex creatures. But despite our differences we can all agree on one thing - trains are awesome. They're fast, efficient and their roofs are home to some of the best fight scenes in action movies. That's why back in the 1960's, America had gone train-mad, building tunnels and tracks all across the country… but one of those tunnels may have gone a little too deep, uncovering a dark paranormal mystery that only got stranger the deeper they went. This is the story of the HOOSAC tunnel.Follow us on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTubeJoin our Secret Society Facebook CommunitySupport us on Patreon.com/ThisParanormalLife to get access to weekly bonus episodes!Buy Official TPL Merch! - thisparanormallife.com/storeIntro music by www.purple-planet.comEdited by Philip Shacklady Hosted on Acast.

In 1875, Massachusetts opened the Hoosac Tunnel, a railway that ran right through the heart of the Hoosac Mountain range. It took 24 full years to construct, and cost nearly 200 men their lives. The horrific accidents that occurred here, gave life to the paranormal encounters we still experience to this day...

In this episode, I look into the history of the Hoosac Tunnel which came to be on known as the Bloody Pit because so many men died building it. The tunnel took 24 years to complete and claimed almost 200 lives, the stories of the hauntings there going back to the late 1800s. Was the project to build the tunnel through the mountain actually cursed?
Dubbed the Bloody Pit by the workers who made her, The Hoosac tunnel is the most haunted tunnel in New England. It's ghosts have allegedly attacked hunters, protected workers, even committed murder.

BY MALCOLM GLADWELL In the mid-nineteenth century, work began on a crucial section of the railway line connecting Boston to the Hudson River. James Hayward, one of New England’s leading railroad engineers, estimated that penetrating the Hoosac would cost, at most, a very manageable two million dollars. Everyone was wrong. Digging through the Hoosac turned out to be a nightmare. The project cost more than ten times the budgeted estimate. http://www.newyorker.com/arts/critics/books/2013/06/24/130624crbo_books_gladwell Web Spotlight: Nine Things Educators Need to Know About the Brain The human brain wasn’t designed for industrial education. 1. The brain is a social organ. Our brains require stimulation and connection to survive and thrive. From a neurobiological perspective, the position of the teacher is very similar to that of the parent in building the child’s brain. 2. We have two brains. Most tasks, though, involve contributions from both hemispheres. So, it is important to understand how to engage both in the classroom context. 3. Early learning is powerful. 4. Conscious awareness and unconscious processing occur at different speeds, often simultaneously. Because of this, it is especially important to teach students to question their assumptions and the possible influences of past experiences and unconscious biases on their feelings and beliefs. 5. The mind, brain, and body are interwoven. 6. The brain has a short attention span and needs repetition and multiple-channel processing for deeper learning to occur. 7. Fear and stress impair learning. Evolution has shaped our brains to err on the side of caution and to trigger fear whenever it might be remotely useful. Success in school depends upon a student’s ability to somehow decrease their stress. 8. We analyze others but not ourselves: the primacy of projection. Simple exercises that guide students to examine what and how what they think and feel about others may be true for themselves can open a window of self-awareness, empathy, and insight. 9. Learning is enhanced by emphasizing the big picture—and then allowing students to discover the details for themselves. When problems are represented at higher levels of abstraction, learning can be integrated into larger schemas that enhance memory, learning, and cognitive flexibility. http://greatergood.berkeley.edu/article/item/nine_things_educators_need_to_know_about_the_brain HOW DO YOU KEEP PEOPLE ENGAGED?
