This week, we’re heading up north to the Constitution State—Connecticut! Lauren kicks things off with a look at two of the state’s eeriest cryptids: the mysterious Faceless People and the elusive Melonheads. The Faceless People are exactly what they sound like—strange figures with smooth, featureless faces and small holes for ears, who prefer to remain in the shadows. The Melonheads, with their oversized heads and unsettling presence, are said to lurk at the ends of lonely, overgrown dirt roads. Then, Kenzie uncovers the haunted history of the Remington Arms Factory in Bridgeport. Once a booming weapons manufacturer, the factory now stands abandoned and is said to be haunted by the spirits of its former workers—and the dark secrets of its past. Join us as we explore the strange legends and chilling histories hidden in the heart of Connecticut.
