How The Lake Michigan Triangle Became One Of The Most Haunted Places On Earth
The legend behind the Bermuda Triangle is one which has perplexed anyone who’s heard it. But fewer realize there’s an area near Wisconsin with an equally chilling reputation. The lesser-known Lake Michigan Triangle has acquired just as much unexplained behavior as its Bermuda counterpart, and its history is downright haunting.

It was during this year that a schooner by the name of the Thomas Hume set sail to gather lumber. Heavy winds set in and seemingly overnight, the boat and its crew of seven men disappeared altogether. Search parties failed to find even a scrap of driftwood.

Just 30 years after the Thomas Hume disappeared, a ship by the name of the Rosa Belle encountered a similar fate. The vessel was discovered overturned in Lake Michigan, yet not one of its 11 passengers could be found. Even more chilling is the fact that damages to the vessel implied a collision, yet no other ship reported an accident or could even be found.

Some claim the haunted area possesses some sort of time warp, transporting passengers and even vessels to a different time. Thousands of passengers have sailed through Lake Michigan with incident-free, yet many opt to avoid the area altogether.

In 1950, a commercial airline from New York City crashed into Lake Michigan. The plane, carrying 58 passengers, was forced to descend due to a strong electrical storm. Shortly after the descent, the plane disappeared from the radar and was never again located. For more information on this tragic disappearance, click here.
