Terrifying Tales of the Lost Souls of Candlewood Lake


On July 15, 1926, CL&P’s Board of Administrators authorised a plan to create a lake to generate electrical energy. They wanted 5,420 acres of personal land to make what was to turn into Candlewood Lake.

35 American households lived within the valley and have been paid “truthful pre-lake costs” for his or her land, equalling roughly $100 per acre. Nonetheless, some landowners refused to promote primarily within the small city of Jerusalem.

Over 100 buildings have been both moved or demolished throughout the relocation of the Jerusalem residents. A small graveyard, together with headstones and our bodies, was additionally moved. The query stays; did everybody get out in time?

Water started pumping into the river valley on February 25, 1928, and on September 29, 1928, Candlewood Lake turned a actuality. The entire value to finish the challenge in 1928 was $6 million, which interprets to $90 million in 2021 {dollars}.

I spent greater than an hour scouring the web to search out proof of anyone who refused to surrender their land and made the choice to remain behind because the water slowly enveloped their houses and barns.

I did discover a weblog publish from Kristi Peterson Schoonover, who grew up on Candlewood Lake. It is titled “Seven Creepy Tales of Candlewood Lake,” making for some scary creepy Halloween tales. For instance, one of many seven tales known as: “THOSE WHO REFUSED TO LEAVE.”

The story goes that the valley residents who refused to go away their property chained themselves to their entrance porches. Whereas the lake was steadily filling up, their screams may very well be heard for miles. As their souls ultimately handed over, their ghosts, freezing within the ice-cold water, often attain up for the sunshine grabbing shocked swimmers and pulling them into their watery grave, by no means to be seen once more.

Among the descendants of the landowners who wouldn’t flip over their land in Sherman nonetheless pay taxes on the submerged property. That could be a true story. To learn Kristi’s different six tales, click on on nehw.blogspot.com. Perhaps Candlewood Lake is not however these 10 our bodies of water simply may be.

At the present time, psychological well being therapy is critical enterprise and generally, sufferers are handled with care and respect. This was not all the time the case within the U.S. and hospitals devoted to the “mentally in poor health” turned prisons that often performed torture. America is now plagued by shuttered hospitals decaying from the within and the skin. Many imagine these locations nonetheless include the darkish vitality left behind by the grotesque acts of the previous. One among these locations in Norwich State Hospital.
