45. The Moodus Noises: Rumbles from the Deep
Deep in the quiet hills of Moodus, Connecticut, the ground groans, rumbles, and roars. For centuries, locals have heard the infamous “Moodus Noises”, phantom booms that shake the earth without warning. To the Indigenous people, they were the voice of angry spirits. To early colonists, they were a curse from the Devil himself. Scientists call them microquakes—but even they can’t explain the chilling frequency, nor why the sounds sometimes seem to happen when no seismic activity exists. In this episode, we’re digging into the legends, the history, and the science behind one of New England’s oldest and creepiest mysteries.Contact Us: Thegang@WeirderAfterDark.comSocials: Facebook | Reddit | Instagram @WeirderAfterDark
