If we’ve investigated a location, then you’ll find it here with photos and commentary. We have plenty of day trips and excursions planned for the future, so check back often.
Growing up in Milford, one of the local stories we all heard about was about a group of giant-headed mutants who lived on the outskirts of town, a band of inbred freaks who were ready to prey Deliverance-style on whoever was careless enough to wander into their midst….
When she was alive, Hannah Cranna was known as “The Wicked Witch of Monroe,” a reputation that continues to follow her over 150 years after her death.
