The Ghost Town of Ricker Basin

from New England Legends Podcast · host New England Legends

In Episode 409 Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger explore the ruins of Ricker Basin, a Waterbury, Vermont, ghost town that survived just over a century before a massive 1927 storm ravaged the region, killing over 50 people and leaving behind a village that was no longer viable. Today the cellar holes, cemetery, and a dilapidated structure is all that stands as a testament that someone was once here.    See more here: https://ournewenglandlegends.com/podcast-409-the-ghost-town-of-ricker-basin/    Listen ad-free plus get early access and bonus episodes at: https://www.patreon.com/NewEnglandLegends        Check out Jeff's new underground publication Shadow Zine! https://shadowzine.com/        Listen to Ray's Local Raydio! https://localraydio.com/    Pre-order the new book by Jeff Belanger and photographer Frank Grace: Wicked Strange: Your Guide to Ghosts, Monsters, Oddities, and Urban Legends from New England - https://amzn.to/3IReeCt
