(Unveiling The Secrets of Spirits At Cemeteries) *** Ever driven down a dark, winding country road and felt the hair on the back of your neck stand up? It's very possible you did if you were traveling down Sleepy Hollow Road. This isn't the Washington Irving tale of a hamlet in New York State – this is an infamous road in Kentucky with eerie legends of ghostly hearses, time warps, satanic rituals and haunted bridges. (The Sleepy Hollow of Kentucky) *** In the picturesque village of Bennington, Vermont, 18-year-old Paula Jean Welden disappeared on a chilly December afternoon in 1946. The case took many twists, including a fruitless search in the wilderness, misleading clues, and even the formation of the Vermont State Police due to criticism of the investigation. To this day, Paula's fate remains unknown. (Vanished: The Unsolved Disappearance of Paula Jean Welden”) *** In 1968, Spain experienced an unprecedented wave of UFO and humanoid sightings that left many mystified, terrified… and mesmerized. From encounters with mysterious figures in homes, to bizarre sightings outdoors, 1968 had the entire country of Spain talking about aliens from outer space. (1968: The Year Of High Strangeness) *** Despite humanity's efforts to control nature, sometimes the natural world pushes back in unexpected and chaotic ways. From a pigeon poop-induced blackout in Japan to a squirrel terrorizing a Welsh town, animals can disrupt our lives… and sometimes in humorous ways.

In this new episode, Tim Pilleri and Lance Reenstierna speak with Worcester State University archives librarian Ross Griffiths about the mysterious Bennington Triangle disappearances of Vermont and the disappearance of Paula Welden on December 1st, 1946. Paula Welden was last seen on the afternoon of December 1st, 1946. She left the campus that afternoon after telling her roommate she was going for a hike. Several hikers reported seeing her on the Long Trail, just off Route 9 near Glastenbury Mountain. She was reported missing by her roommate the following morning, after she did not return to campus. An extensive search of the area did not show any signs of Welden. Investigators from New York, Massachusetts, and Connecticut assisted in the investigation, due to limited police services in Vermont at the time. Numerous theories were investigated, but no conclusive outcome was ever determined.

Paula Jean Welden è stata la prima ragazza scomparsa a diventare "quantica": da quel 1 dicembre 1946 ha iniziato a vivere migliaia di vite, tutte immaginarie, eppure reali per le persone che pensavano di averla vista da questa parte o l'altra degli Stati Uniti. Dopo il suo caso, rimasto tutt'oggi irrisolto, lo Stato del Vermont ha istituito il corpo di polizia statale, eppure sul Long Trail dove Paula si è persa, non è stata l'unica a non essere più trovata.Vuoi supportare il podcast?

In dieser spannenden Folge tauchen wir tief in die mysteriösen Missing 411 Fälle ein, die vom ehemaligen Polizisten und Privatdetektiv David Paulides untersucht wurden. Missing 411 ist vermutlich schon vielen von euch ein Begriff. Besonders widmen wir uns den Vorfällen im Bennington-Dreieck, einem Gebiet in Vermont, das durch seine ungewöhnlichen und beunruhigenden Vermisstenfälle bekannt geworden ist. Der Begriff "Bennington-Dreieck" wurde von dem Autor Joseph Citro geprägt und umfasst eine Reihe von unerklärlichen Verschwinden in dieser Region. Was macht einen Fall zu einem Missing 411 Fall? Wir erläutern die spezifischen Kriterien und Merkmale, die David Paulides definiert hat, um diese rätselhaften Vermisstenfälle zu klassifizieren. Dazu gehören besondere Umstände, unerklärliche Spuren und das Fehlen logischer Erklärungen. Wir erzählen die Geschichten der betroffenen Personen, die im Bennington-Dreieck verschwunden sind. Diese Region ist bekannt für eine Reihe von mysteriösen Verschwinden, darunter die berühmten Fälle von Paula Jean Welden, James E. Tedford, und weiteren unglücklichen Seelen, die spurlos verschwanden. Gerade zwischen 1920 und 1950 ereigneten sich einige Fälle, die David Paulides in zwei seiner Bücher zusammenfasste. Wir beleuchten die letzten bekannten Bewegungen der Verschwundenen und die seltsamen Umstände, die ihre Fälle umgeben. David Paulides' Arbeit hat nicht nur Anerkennung, sondern auch viel Kritik hervorgerufen. Wir diskutieren die Hauptpunkte der Kritik, die sich auf seine Methodik, die Auswahl der Fälle und die Schlussfolgerungen beziehen, die er zieht. Ist seine Arbeit fundierte Forschung oder eher spekulative Pseudowissenschaft? #missing411 #davidpaulides #fall #truecrime #mystery #podcast #deutsch #wald #wildnis #verschwunden #missing #verloren #zurückgekehrt #tot #gefunden #leben #geheimnis #bigfoot #kreatur #amerika #vermont #bennington #nationalpark #berg #crime #urbanlegend #bigfoot Quellenrecherche: https://pastebin.com/81RHAKb4 Empfehlung der Folge: https://www.canammissing.com/ So erreicht ihr uns: Instagram: @spookybitchshow.podcast Mail: spookybitchshow@web.de Unseren Linktree findet ihr hier: https://linktr.ee/spookybitchshow Intro: Musik von Ronald Kah (Abendrot, geschnitten), Web: https://ronaldkah.de

Paula Jean Welden lived in Bennington, Vermont. The 18-year-old went for a hike on the afternoon of December 1, 1946. No one is sure what in the world happened after she left Bennington College campus that day. Eyewitnesses became unreliable. Police started to question if any of them even saw, gave a ride to, or talked to Paula Jean after she left her dorm, or if it was only someone who matched Paula's description. With zero clues and investigating every tip, all that was left were many questions that people are still asking today.TwitterInstagramFacebookTumblrWebsitePatreonReverieTrueCrime@gmail.comSourceshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paula_Jean_Weldenhttps://www.newspapers.com/image/547027352/https://www.newspapers.com/image/657518273/https://www.newspapers.com/image/547027464/https://www.newspapers.com/image/534224591/https://www.newspapers.com/image/547027578/https://www.newspapers.com/image/547027970/https://www.newspapers.com/image/546172144/https://www.newspapers.com/image/660008584/https://www.newspapers.com/image/534236770/https://www.newspapers.com/image/197933236/https://www.newspapers.com/image/660675026/https://www.newspapers.com/image/660897305/https://www.newspapers.com/image/659141088/https://www.newspapers.com/image/534240608/https://www.newspapers.com/image/660902540/https://www.newspapers.com/image/657532476/https://www.newspapers.com/image/548740626/https://www.newspapers.com/image/660566567/https://www.newspapers.com/image/546028073/https://www.newspapers.com/image/546028343/https://www.newspapers.com/image/659528456/https://www.newspapers.com/image/657702127/https://www.newspapers.com/image/534384316/https://www.newspapers.com/image/547794064/https://www.newspapers.com/image/661082253/https://www.newspapers.com/image/604159313/https://www.newspapers.com/image/659646674/https://www.newspapers.com/image/63051196/https://www.newspapers.com/image/546818564/https://www.newspapers.com/image/610679630/https://www.newspapers.com/image/63063443/https://www.newspapers.com/image/546913892/https://www.newspapers.com/image/546851780/https://www.newspapers.com/image/546854552/https://www.newspapers.com/image/546701182/https://www.newspapers.com/image/546702180/https://www.newspapers.com/image/535083727/https://www.newspapers.com/image/382823889/https://www.newspapers.com/image/786758740/https://www.newyorkalmanack.com/2022/09/1946-disappearance-of-paula-welden/https://newenglandhistoricalsociety.com/paula-jean-welden-birth-vermont-state-police/https://www.historicmysteries.com/disappearance-of-paula-jean-welden/https://benningtonmuseum.org/event/bhs2022sept/https://charleyproject.org/case/paula-jean-welden
November 12, 1945. Bennington County, Vermont. While on a hunting trip on Glastenbury Mountain, 74-year old Middie Rivers splits off from his son-in-law, but he is never heard from again and an extensive search effort fails to find him. Over the next five years, four other individuals – 18-year old Paula Jean Welden, 68-year old James Tedford, eight-year old Paul Jepson and 53-year old Frieda Langer – all vanish within the same general area and most of the victims are never found. This leads to speculation that the cases might be connected or that something supernatural is involved in their disappearances, so the area becomes known as “The Bennington Triangle”. On this month's final Halloween-themed episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we will be exploring five cases which all supposedly took place within a geographical area which is believed to be cursed.

Long before the state of Vermont had a state police agency, several teens went missing from the same area. One of those teens was college sophomore Paula Welden. Paula disappeared without a trace in 1946, and we are left all these years later wondering what happened to her. Want to create your own podcast but don't know where to start? Give Zencastr a try.

Temp (II) Las ciencias, cada una de las cuales se esfuerza en su propia dirección, hasta ahora nos han perjudicado poco; algún día, la unión del conocimiento, abrirá vistas terribles, que nos volveremos locos por la revelación.- HP Lovecraft Artículo del Sydney Morning Herald . Los eventos que tuvieron lugar en Guyra y Glen Innes durante varios meses en 1921 parecen ser las acciones del espíritu de una niña muerta, pero más bien es el resultado de la actividad poltergeist. Después de todo, nadie fue testigo de ninguna aparición y, aparte de Minnie, una niña delgada, morena y de rostro impasible, que contestaba preguntas antes de ser completadas, nadie escuchó voces fantasmales. El Fantasma o el poltergeist de Guyra. Una historia sobrecogedora que sucede en este pueblo, en Nueva Gales del Sur, Australia a la familia Bowen. Escritores como Robert Louis Stevenson y Arthur Conan Doyl se interesaron por lo ocurrido, así como la prensa. Qué ocurre en el Bosque Norteamericano de Bennington? Quizá sea porque me apasiona la naturaleza, porque creo que hay pocas personas que se sientan incomodas en ella, en verdes senderos o descansando en una roca mientras oye el canto de los pájaros… o por qué no decirlo, por el misterio que esconde la espesa frondosidad… hoy os hablaré de uno de los Bosques más extraños… y añado… de los más aterradores, por lo que en él, ocurre. No hace mucho, os hablé del bosque japonés de Aokigahara, conocido como el de los Suicidios. En EEUU, existe uno de los Bosques más peligrosos que existen en el mundo. En el Bosque Nacional Green Mountain de Vermont, Montañas Verdes, en Estados Unidos, la belleza que hay ante los ojos de quien pasea por sus senderos, es mágica… Situado en el llamado Triángulo de Bennington, las desapariciones, la evanescencia, en el aire, de caminantes, sin que nunca, casi nunca, se encuentren motivos, relación, ni pista alguna. Uno de los senderos más conocidos es el llamado Sendero Largo o camino numero 9. Hace décadas que ocurren, pero hubo 5 años muy puntuales… en concreto, desde 1945 a 1950. El cazador Middie Rivers, la estudiante Paula Jean Welden, el militar James Edward Tedford, el pequeño Paul Jephsin y la señora Frieda Langer, son los casos más conocidos. Cuevas, puertas o ventanas Espacio Tiempo, Monstruos, La Piedra devoradora de hombres, Serpientes Gigantes, el Pájaro de Trueno, el Bigfoot, Psicokillers o Asesinos en Serie, Comunidades asesinas, Caníbales, Abducción por Luces Extrañas de OVNIS que se observan… cualquier motivo puede ser creible dentro del Triángulo de Bennington. No muy lejos de allí, en Massachusetts, curiosamente, existe el Triángulo de Bridgewater.

In the 1940s/50s a string of disappearances in the Vermont area highlighted by Paula Jean Weldens disappearance would eventually lead to the area being known today as the Bennington Triangle.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/user?u=51933422)
During Paula Welden's sophomore year in college, she decided to finally venture out and explore North Bennington's portion of the Long Trail in Vermont. She set out on the afternoon of December 1, 1946, and would never be seen again. Her body has not been found to this day, and no evidence or leads have come to light. However, she wasn't the first or last person to go missing without a trace in the area, leading to it being nicknamed the Bennington Triangle.
Paula Jean Welden was an American college student who disappeared while walking on Vermont's Long Trail hiking route. Local sheriffs were criticized for errors made in the investigation, which led to the creation of the Vermont State Police. Weldon's fate remains uncertain, and was one of several unexplained disappearances in the same area at the time. Precisely what area is encompassed in this hypothetical "mystery triangle" is not clear, but it is purportedly centered on Glastenbury Mountain and would include some or most of the area of the towns immediately surrounding it, especially Bennington, Woodford, Shaftsbury, and Somerset – once moderately thriving logging and industrial towns. The show is streamed live at twitch.tv/husbint.
Paula Welden was the eldest of four daughters of the well-known industrial engineer, architect and designer William Archibald Welden (1900–1970) and his wife Jean Douglas (born at Mount Kisco, New York, 1901; died at Venice, Florida, 1976), née Wilson, of Brookdale Road, Stamford, Connecticut. Employed by the Revere Copper and Brass Company, W. Archibald Welden was the designer of many familiar household utensils, as well as stylish cocktail shakers and other objects. Paula Welden was a 1945 graduate of Stamford High School. In 1946, Welden was a sophomore at Bennington College in North Bennington, Vermont. Her college dormitory was Dewey House, one of the older dormitories on the college grounds, and which remains standing to this day. One day, Welden resolved to find and walk a portion of the Long Trail, located a few miles from the campus. She knew of the famous trail but hadn't yet had an opportunity to hike it. She tried to get some other students to join her that day, but they were busy; she went by herself.

Another strange missing persons case from the state of Vermont. What is going on in this little world? Paula Jean Welden was a sophomore at Bennington College where she decided she wanted to try to hike a portion of the Long Trail, a hiking trail that runs the length of the state. Sadly, all of her friends were busy and she was forced to head out alone. Though it was the beginning of December, Paula was not dressed appropriate for the hike and never returned to her dorm room. And no evidence of her has ever been found. Did she get lost and die in the woods? Did she secretly meet a boy and elope? Was the victim of a serial killer? Or did she meet a much more unusual fate? We explore a wide variety of theories in this week's episode.SHOW NOTEShttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paula_Jean_Weldenhttps://www.strangeoutdoors.com/mysterious-stories-blog/2019/12/12/the-strange-disappearance-of-paulajean-weldon-in-the-bennington-trianglehttp://tkrice.tripod.com/welden.htmlhttps://unsolvedvermont.com/2019/11/30/missing-paula-jean-welden/https://www.benningtonbanner.com/stories/after-60-years-students-fate-remains-a-legendary-mystery,260506https://www.newspapers.com/clip/8340826/paula-welden-1-year-post-disappearance/https://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/vt-student-body-found-1946-disappeararance-article-1.2603927https://www.manchesterjournal.com/stories/dont-be-afraid,588470https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bennington_Trianglehttps://allthatsinteresting.com/bennington-trianglehttps://listverse.com/2019/03/12/10-creepy-mysteries-of-the-bennington-triangle/https://www.benningtonbanner.com/stories/lost-in-glastenbury,43274

The Bennington Triangle in Vermont has historically been home to some of the country's weirdest sightings and events. The Triangle is comprised of small communities that include Bennington, Woodford, Somerset, Glastenbury, and Shaftsbury, with Glastenbury Mountain located at its centre. Besides being home to UFO sightings, wild men, the Bennington Monster, and strange rumors about cursed mountains, the Bennington Triangle is the last known location of a number of missing persons. Between 1945 and 1950, Middie Rivers, Paula Jean Welden, James Tedford, Paul Jepson, and Frieda Langer all disappeared without a trace - in the years since their disappearances, only one body has ever been recovered.

Bennington Vermont was a quiet, comfortable place to live without much incident or crime. Robberies, vandalism, murders and even petty crime were almost non-existent. Disappearances, however, mysterious disappearances, were more common. Each year between 1945 and 1950 someone had vanished under mysterious circumstances. Victims ranged from an eight year old boy to a 74 year old hunter. In 1947, however, the most famous disappearance occurred sparking the formation of the Vermont State Police. The disappearance would haunt the small town forever.This is Unsolved Mysterious of the World, Season 3 Episode 12 The disappearance of Paula Jean Welden and The Bennington Triangle.Remember to visit our show sponsor:www.experiencethis360.com See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
