It looks like a joke… until you realize no one knows who started it—or why it keeps growing. On this episode of New England Legends, Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger travel to Lincoln to investigate one of New England's strangest and most beloved roadside mysteries: Ponyhenge. Since mysteriously appearing in 2010, this odd “henge” of toy horses has grown, vanished, and re-emerged again and again—always changing, always anonymous, and always raising the same question: who keeps rebuilding it? From ancient-looking arrangements to modern folklore in real time, The Ancient Mystery of Ponyhenge explores how legends are born, evolve, and take on lives of their own—even in plain sight.

On this episode of New England Legends, Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger head to Sterling, where a quiet stretch of Main Street hides one of New England's strangest roadside mysteries. Locals say this land once belonged to a witch—and she never gave it up. Put your car in neutral on Gravity Hill, take your foot off the brake, and something unseen is said to push you uphill, driving trespassers off her property. Is it a ghostly shove from beyond the grave…or a trick of gravity, perception, and folklore? With engines off and nerves on edge, Jeff and Ray put the legend to the test, separating physics from paranormal in a place where the road may have a mind of its own. Neutral gear. No engine.

These British sailors didn't know it at the time, but this woman was the wife of Chief Squando, a powerful sorcerer. And the children were his. Squando placed a powerful curse on the river that gave rise to a legend and monster that took countless lives in the Saco River.

Welcome to New England Legends From the Vault – FtV Episode 134 –  Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger head to Peck's Hollow in Franklin, Connecticut, in search of Micah Rood's former farm and a cursed apple tree that dates back to an alleged murder from the early 1700s. For many decades, folks in eastern Connecticut had to wonder when they bit into a Mike apple if those red specs were just pigmentation, or drops of blood from a murdered French peddler.

Darkness Radio Presents: Wicked Strange: Your Guide to Ghosts, Monsters. Oddities, & Urban Legends from New England with Researcher/Podcast Host/ Author, Jeff Belanger! Wicked Strange is a journey and a celebration of all the things that make New England like no other place on earth. In a time when so much of the world is becoming homogenized—as big-box stores and chain restaurants move in and so many communities lose their identity—we still have these legends. They belong to specific towns and streets. These are stories locals will share with you . . . if they trust you.  This travel guide takes readers on a journey to the strange and frequently unseen world that is often right under their noses. Covering numerous haunted places, environs where mysterious creatures have been spotted, areas where unusual events have happened, eccentric locals, and roadside oddities to explore, noted expert of the strange Jeff Belanger is your guide to all that's local and strange. Haunted locations from all over New England are covered New England is full of monsters and devils that lurk in the woods, lakes, and seas. Explored are some of the best known and most obscure, including Lake Champlain's Champ; the Cumberland Vampire of Rhode Island; Gloucester's Sea Serpent; the Black Dog of West Peak in Meriden, Connecticut; and the Flying Moose of Maine. Also covered are unusual events, such as UFO sightings (Connecticut's UFO crash at Bantam Lake / Betty and Barney Hill's UFO experience), and roadside oddities, such as the World's Tallest Filing Cabinet (Burlington, VT), Boston's Big Steaming Tea Kettle, and the literal Fork in the Road of Westport, MA.  Wicked Strange takes you off the beaten path, revealing a hidden world right under your nose.
