Episode 241: Hoia Baciu Forest, Romania’s Bermuda Triangle
Beneath the emerald canopy of Transylvania’s misty mountains lies a forest so strange that it has been nicknamed the “Bermuda Triangle of Romania”. Named after a shepherd who went missing amongst the twisted trees hundreds of years ago, the Hoia-Baciu woods are rumored to swallow all those who dare enter, returning them as shadows of their former selves, if at all. Stepping foot over the boundary of this haunted treeline is not without serious risk: cameras malfunction, compasses spin, time slips by more quickly, and a chorus of strange lights, spirits, and entities watch your every move. Tonight, we’ll wander past the last filtered beams of daylight and venture deep into the small patch of earth that has terrified scientists, mystics, and locals alike, on a quest to find out just what makes the Hoia-Baciu Forest one of the most haunted places on Earth.
