Connecticut River Monster

Tracing back to 19th-century eyewitnesses, accounts describe a massive, serpent-like creature seen in the waters of New England’s longest river. The most famous report occurred in 1886 near Middletown, Connecticut, when two men claimed their boat was struck by an enormous animal that raised a long neck and dark head above the surface. Additional sightings followed in later years along the river in Connecticut and Massachusetts. Though no physical evidence has ever been found, the reports fueled regional folklore, blending natural mystery, misidentification theories, and enduring river-borne intrigue.Join us today, as we cruise Within the Mists of Connecticut to tell you about the Connecticut River Monster.Facebook Fan Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/544933724571696Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/withinthemistpodcast/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@withinthemistpodcast1977 Hosted on Acast.
