The Bennington Triangle is a mysterious area in southwestern Vermont where unexplained disappearances occurred between 1945 and 1950. Coined by American author Joseph A. Citro, this enigmatic region has captured the imagination of many. Let’s delve into the eerie tales surrounding the Bennington Triangle:
Middie Rivers (1945):
On November 12, 1945, 74-year-old Middie Rivers vanished near Long Trail Road and Vermont Route 9. Despite an extensive search, he could not be found.
Paula Jean Welden (1946):
Paula Jean Welden, an 18-year-old sophomore at Bennington College, disappeared on December 1, 1946. She had set out for a hike on the Long Trail. Witnesses saw her depart, including Ernest Whitman, a Bennington Banner employee who gave her directions. Despite the chilly weather, Welden was not wearing a jacket (50°F, later dropping to 9°F). An elderly couple reported seeing her on the trail, but she mysteriously vanished around a corner.
Glastenbury and Surrounding Area:
The Bennington Triangle’s boundaries are not precisely defined, but it is centered around Glastenbury Mountain. The area includes parts of towns like Bennington, Woodford, Shaftsbury, and Somerset. Glastenbury and Somerset were once thriving logging and industrial towns but declined by the late 19th century, now existing as ghost towns.
Stories of strange happenings have circulated about Glastenbury and its surroundings for years, making it a focal point of folklore and mystery.
The Bennington Triangle remains an unsolved puzzle, drawing intrigue from those fascinated by the inexplicable.
