In this concluding episode of our series on the Bennington Triangle, host Jeff Dixon shifts the focus from the chilling disappearances of the Vermont wilderness to the profound spiritual lessons hidden within the mystery. While the urban legend is filled with uncertainty and even some historical embellishment, it serves as a powerful metaphor for our own walk with Jesus. Jeff explores how the “unknowns” of life—much like the dense woods of the triangle—can lead us to trust more deeply in God’s plan, value the strength of community, and face our fears with the confidence of Isaiah 41. Discover how the fragility of life and our need for divine guidance can transform a spooky legend into a roadmap for living a purpose-driven, “legendary” life of faith.

Deep in the Vermont wilderness lies a stretch of land where the trails twist, the earth is said to be “angry,” and people simply vanish without a trace. In this episode of Urban Legends, host Jeff Dixon explores the chilling history of the Bennington Triangle, from the infamous disappearances of the 1940s to the harrowing 2008 account of a hiker who survived a “dizzying” brush with the unknown. We dive into the theories ranging from ancient curses and cosmic portals to the startling admission of author Joseph Citro, who reveals how easily the line between terrifying fact and “spruced up” fiction can blur. Is the Bennington Triangle a supernatural magnet for tragedy, or a masterpiece of modern folklore? Join us as we step off the trail to find out—but be warned, out here, even your GPS won’t save you.

Deep within the wilderness of Vermont lies a stretch of forest where the line between reality and legend begins to blur. In this episode of Urban Legends, host Jeff Dixon explores the haunting history of the Bennington Triangle—an area surrounding Glastonbury Mountain where, between 1945 and 1950, five people seemingly stepped out of this world and into another. From an experienced woodsman who vanished in the blink of an eye to a veteran who disappeared from a moving bus, we examine the baffling cases that birthed a legend of curses, UFOs, and ancient mysteries. Are these mere coincidences of the wild, or is there something more profound lurking beneath the trees? Join us as we recount these unsettling disappearances and prepare to look deeper into the spiritual ramifications of a place where people go in, but never come out.

In the 1980s, a series of devastating house fires across England left behind a chilling calling card: amidst the charred ruins, a painting of a sobbing child would often be found completely untouched by the flames. This week on Urban Legends, we dive into the haunting mystery of the “Crying Boy” paintings. Is it a supernatural curse, or is there something more human at play? Beyond the ghost stories, we explore the profound lessons this legend offers us today—from the power of vulnerability and emotional expression to the endurance of art as a divine gift. We’ll examine how fear and superstition can take root in a community, creating a “vortex of belief” that challenges our logic. Watch as we weigh the reality of the curse against the power of the stories we tell ourselves, and ask the ultimate question: Would you be brave enough to hang this painting in your own home?

In the charred remains of a devastating house fire, everything is typically reduced to ash—except, according to legend, for the sorrowful eyes of a young boy staring back from a pristine canvas. Join Jeff Dixon as we explore the chilling history of the “Crying Boy” paintings, a mass-produced series of portraits that became a national phenomenon in 1980s England. From the eerie reports of firefighters who discovered these portraits untouched amidst the rubble to the sensational tabloid headlines that sparked a country-wide panic, we dive deep into the mystery. Was it a supernatural gypsy curse, the trapped soul of a suffering child, or simply a misunderstood miracle of fire-resistant varnish? We unpack the history of artist Bruno Amadillo’s “woeful portraits,” the mass bonfires of 1985, and the lingering fear that hanging one of these prints might just be an invitation for destruction. Watch to decide for yourself: Is it just a coincidence, or is some art truly cursed?
