Why Dark Entry Forest is Totally Forbidden


Listen Later

Hidden deep within the forests of Connecticut lies the ruins of a vanished colonial village — a place that locals call Dudleytown. Once a small farming community, it mysteriously disappeared from maps, leaving behind only stone foundations and a legend that refuses to die. Today, the area is sealed off by a private corporation called Dark Entry Forest, Incorporated, which has spent decades keeping trespassers away. Their secrecy has only fueled speculation about what really happened there.

In this episode, we uncover the real story behind Dudleytown — from its humble 18th-century origins and harsh winters to the myths of a generational curse that supposedly doomed its settlers. Along the way, we explore how this abandoned Connecticut village became one of America’s most infamous “haunted” sites, and why even today, no one is allowed to step foot on its land.
