See there is only one piece of the puzzle that doesn't make sense to me every time I've heard this story it doesn't make sense to me that the government came in caused all that devastation which cost a lot of money by the way and a lot of resources to just stop out of nowhere because of "toxic chemicals " that supposedly affected their own people very badly and if thats the case then why wouldn't they have boarded up the entire town and be considered a hazardous area not to mention tell nobody got an answer to why they had to leave in the first place and when they did it would always be a different answer or none at all not to mention these supposed to toxic chemicals we're never mentioned by the townspeople nor were they affected by it
Greed always finds a way to trample what is good and decent, and everyone pays the price. You are a great story teller. Give us more.
Thanks for the kind words rockfoots. I appreciate it.
And thanks for watching and commenting!
Yes great content especially for thus homeschooling family! My 11 year old loves the history and stories ...
We however have a 6,8,11 & 15 yr old that often watch...
Wow! I am honored! Thank you for inviting my channel into your home! 😊
You would be great to sit around a campfire and tell ghost stories/lore! Amazing content, delivery & production quality! Please keep doing this and sharing with us all to enjoy. Thank you. 😊
I am honored and humbled by this comment JS. Thank you so much.
And thanks for watching! Means the world to me!
When TH-cam actually recommends me something I like. Very interesting! I actually visited Boston Mills a few weeks ago, having heard of “Helltown” from a different TH-cam video describing it at this abandoned town with all sorts of satanic activity. It was a pleasant surprise to see how nice the area has become though, and asking the park rangers about the Helltown history will get you all sorts of annoyed looks (that’s what happened to me anyway). It’s really cool hearing this story and it’s symbolism. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for the excellent comment Ray!
Most of the oddities and boarded up houses have been removed and the valley inhabitants are very focused on progressing their beautiful location forward and forgetting the past.
I certainly appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment!
Hope to see you here again!
Hey man, I’m from Cuyahoga falls. Non of this existed ever lol. Hell town is a myth.
Helltown is closed down a closed road like 5 or 10 mins away.
Sadly many women were falsely accused of being a witch were because someone else wanted there land, live stock or money. The only wicked we’re the ones who falsely accused these women to die a horrible death. Very sad 😞
I agree Kelly.
Thanks for watching and commenting. I appreciate it!
Often women with some sort of power. I watched a documentary on the time “witch hunting” was popular. It referred to that time as christians genocide against women! To keep women in their place.
Yes, but those people that did the evil did of murdered them all died horribly as well. When you harm the innocent revenge will still return.
They died pretty quickly not to say what happened was bad but the fumes killed them way before the fire
Amazing to think that such tyranny happened less than 50 years ago, in "the land of the free." Great video, as always!
Thanks Jeff! It’s still mind boggling to me that property you legally own can be “legally” taken from you.
Thanks again for your continued support!
The same tyranny still goes on under many different methods in every country in the world.
It sure does Brenda.
Thanks for watching and commenting!
It seems its coming back
Thanks for watching and commenting!
THIS, ladies and gentlemen, is how to tell a story! Another great video, good sir...keep it up!
Thank you so much L V! What a wonderful comment. I am truly blessed to have viewers such as yourself. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you for your continued support!
@@CuriousHistoryYT I watched and enjoyed both "In Search of" with Leonard Nimoy and "Ripley's Believe It or Not" with Jack Palance (yes, I'm that old!); take this as a compliment: your delivery draws your subscribers in just like those two hosts.
@@GingerKraut I was raised on those shows as well my friend. You just gave me the highest compliment possible. I am honored and humbled.
Man, we were gonna do an episode on Helltown, but it never materialized. I didn't even know about this particular legend. Nicely done!
Thank you Santino. We were going to do ours specifically on HT also but there’s really nothing left. Everything has been cleaned up for the most part. Would still like to see how you guys would film it. You make everything look excellent!
Thanks for watching and commenting!
I never knew of this legend either and I grew up in the Cuyahoga Valley. Hmmm
Legends are funny that way Michele. New ones appear at a moment’s notice
I grew up in the valley and I remember those times. My dad's friend went to prison when he refused to leave his property by barricading himself in his home. I still live here and this valley still reverberates with the emotions from that time. Question for you - have you come across any documentation of a train derailment on what's now the Cuyahoga Valley Line near the boundary of Independence and Valley View where the current visitor center is located maybe in the late 60's? Great video.
Thanks for all this info H Sylvester! I appreciate the comment! What a tragic time for everyone who lived thru that hell.
I haven’t seen documentation on the train derailment. I will certainly look into it. Thanks for the heads up.
And thanks for watching! I appreciate it!
@@CuriousHistoryYT it may have been earlier 60's I was really young. The story is that after very heavy rain the embankment gave way - train derailed and engineer couldn't be rescued from the mud. I've been trying to research for awhile with no luck. Thank you for the reply and I shall keep tuned in to the channel!
Thank you!
More than likely U’ve tried old local news papers & historical societies in the area. Maybe train buffs, disaster buffs, the local police department or library staff in charge of local history. Well, I truly hope one of those mentioned may give U a new lead or avenue to examine.
Many Blessings My Friend
Sorry to correct you, the church with the upside down crosses adorning it is not Satanic, the crosses are those of Saint Peter who was crucified upside down. Great vid, I hadn't heard this story of the witch.
Yep you’re absolutely correct Vypr. That’s the Mother of Sorrows Parish adorning those crosses of Saint Peter.
When Helltown was in its heyday, people who wanted to further the legend used those symbols to propagate the story.
I’m glad most have moved past that untruth.
Thanks for watching and commenting! I appreciate it!
Thanks for watching and commenting Vickie! 😊
No it’s not. It’s satanic. Y’all believe the kook aid
It came across as the myth of the satanic church.
How am I JUST finding this channel?!! This is fantastic. Great work and intricate storytelling!!
Thank you Fia! Glad you found the channel!
And thanks for watching and commenting! I appreciate it!
That was an awesome video my friend and I enjoyed watching it as well as the story. It's forever a part of Ohio history.
Thank you for the kind words James! I really appreciate it!
I was shocked when I heard about the story of the witch and how it mirrored the Helltown drama.
Thanks again for watching and commenting!
@@CuriousHistoryYT You're welcome my friend.
You Sir are a very interesting story teller and great historian. Love all your videos. Thanks for your time and research.
Thank you for this James! I certainly appreciate the kind words.
And thanks for watching and commenting!
My wife and I have very recently hiked those same areas visible in the background of the different locations you were shooting at...really cool to watch that on film...thanks for sharing that story !!
You’re welcome Eternally Thankful!
Thank you for watching and commenting!
You have a great voice for this kind of content. Just stumbled upon your channel but excited to watch more! :)
Why thank you Celia! That’s very kind of you to say.
Thank you for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
IF you are American.
Really enjoyed the story. I liked seeing the town and bridges when you were walking around.Seeing the tombstone and the damage it took from the storm really was cool also. I enjoy your cast, keep up the fine work! Thanks...
Thank you for the kind words Tuan. And thanks for watching and commenting!
Love the audio and begging sound track
Thanks Le Bean. I appreciate that. Sometimes the soundtrack is the biggest hurdle for me. It’s nice to know that it’s appreciated!
Thanks again for watching and commenting!
Wow! What an amazing story. I have never heard of such a place until i found your video on this. This is a wonderful channel, and looking forward to seeing even more. Thank you, Sir, and God bless you.
Thank you for this Lewis! I am truly grateful for your comment. God bless you as well!
'God" ha ha ha ha
One might give this story a different, more traditional fairytale meaning. The old woman spent long years helping the people with their ailments and their troubles, but when she needed their help and protection, they, although many and stronger than Big Sam, watched their innocent old healer be abused and murdered, and betrayed her by being to cowardly to help her against the bully. Thus, they loaded a collective guilt upon themselves and their town. And when a lightning, the fiery force of nature, finally freed the old woman, she let a bully from far away come and teach those "nice people" what it means to be a helpless victim... What goes around, comes around.
Just another interpretation. 🙂
What a great spin on the tale Gaia! Love it! Very creative!
Thanks for watching and commenting!
I agree.
God I love spooky stories and good Americana history. You did such a great narration and telling of the story. Definitely subbed to hear more from you.
Thank you GrayFall! Welcome to the community! It’s great to have you here!
More spooky on the way in the next few weeks so keep an eye out!
And thanks for watching and commenting!
What an awesome and intriguing story! I love that you’re finding so many of the lesser-known bits of our Curious History to shed light on. As always, fantastic job with the production, my friend! Keep it up!!
Thank you for the kind words Joseph! It’s the lesser known stuff that intrigues me most.
And thanks for watching and commenting! Means the world to me!
A lot of witch accusations were fabricated to take valuable real estate from women, usually elderly with no family to protect them.
So true J.
Thanks for watching and commenting!
👍👍 Nice!!! Great tale and narration! New subscriber. Nothing like a good old yarn. Thank you.
Thank you BigSi! I appreciate the compliment and the sub! Means a lot!
Okay but the child happily waving at the camera was adorable, lol.
😊😊😊
I would just like to thank every wonderful human being in this whole chat. Y'all are amazing people and it is us the world needs more then anything right now. Those who can share opinions and not get attacked but have intelligent discussions. Love you all ✌️☮️🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Where do you find such "Curious History"? This historic story was quite interesting. I am looking forward to more! Great job! Thanx
Thank YOU Rick for such a wonderful comment.
I am blessed to live in a state that has such a rich history of lore, legend, paranormal, and fact.
I didn’t really know the scope itself until I started this channel.
Thank you so much for the comment and for watching. It means the world.
@@CuriousHistoryYT I grew up in North West Ohio, and though lived in lots of places, but Ohio has always seemed more unique
Great video
Thanks Stephan!
I agree…there’s just something about Ohio!
Thanks for watching and commenting!
he likely just lives in ohio lol. its a strange place. i grew up in scioto county on a big hill. there was one spot i wasnt allowed to go and the reasons always changed. well fast forward close to 40 years and where i was told not to play was an impact zone of something. i found it on google earth a while back showing my daughter where i came from so shed appreciate her situation more. that impact is most likely a meteor since i used to see them often. if youre into these kinds of stories you know about impact sites. there were things on that hill. we saw alot of ufo's and my mother and i got followed(chased really) by one. i felt it before i saw it. no clue about my mom but she knew something wasnt right and we both panicked and went to leave. when we opened that door and saw this thing we almost hit a panic state. it followed us for around 20 min then gone. on a side note ive seen a train with a small crane arm dropping barrels of toxic waste into the scioto/ohio river. outside lucasville ohio. i can still show you where and ive lived in nc since 85. thanks to films like chud it had me worried lol.
when i say things on that hill i meant beings. it was no secret to us that lived there. a lit up cigar shaped ufo used to fly over the sleepy village of otway nightly.
Thank you for this excellent presentation. You speak clearly and directly and are a great storyteller.
Thank you Susan! Very kind of you to say!
And thanks for watching and commenting! 😊
I just wanted to say you do a really good job and letting the viewers know stuff like this it's very interesting I love history very much I soak it up like a sponge and it's so interesting for you to do this so thank you very much and God bless you and keep up the good work 😊
Wow Jackie! Thank you so much for the kind words! I really appreciate it!
Thank you for watching and commenting!
God bless you too!
Since there was no mention of him talking to anyone in his household when he awoke from his nightmare, nor witness to his chat with the goat prior to his death, I do not see this as 'a part of history' as some have commented to that effect, but rather simply a good fantasy story. Nice job.
These are always so fascinating to learn the stories and history about places so close to where I live that I've never known.
Thanks Phoenix! Glad you enjoyed it. And thanks again for your continued support!
Just came across this video in my feed, I LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!! You're a fantastic, compelling storyteller and the tone and mood you set here is just PERFECT! And I love the allegory here, a reminder to all that bullies should NEVER be tolerated. Keep it up!
Thank you Gustavo! Very nice of you to say!
Thanks for watching and commenting! I appreciate it!
Love to see you continue into Rogue's Hollow and Canal Fulton Legends. Close to home everywhere you go.
Rogues Hollow is on the list John. Gathering info now. Trying to figure out when the best time to visit is. Now? Fall?
Any suggestions?
Thanks for watching and commenting!
@@CuriousHistoryYT I'd say fall to get the true vibe. Beginning of October so it isn't as cold?
Fall it is then.
Thanks for the help!
Wow! Just found you today. Great story! I had to subscribe. Looking forward to hearing/watching for more. Keep the spooky stuff coming!
Thank you Me Me and welcome to the community!
More spooky on the way soon!

Thanks for making/sharing this. You are such a great story teller! This is one interesting town and hadn't heard about it until today 7/4/2022. Your video was in my recommended and I'm glad I watched.
Thanks for taking the time Brian! And thanks for the kind words! I appreciate it!
Oop lol l
Awesome video and very fascinating stories! Great presentation also, I look forward to watching more of your videos.
Thank you Ashley!
And thanks for watching and commenting! I appreciate it!
Came here for a spooky story and got a moral lesson. New favorite channel.
Wow! Thanks Jake!! 😊
I appreciate that you covered the absolute debacle of the government land grab as well as the witch story. I also like that you included the skeptical version of what happened at the end. The whole thing was well presented, both dramatic and informative.
Thank you! 😊
The Big Sam and the witch story is a perfect allegory for the government action. Strange.
Thanks for this Mervin! I think so too.
And thanks for watching. I appreciate it.
I used to live in Streetsboro just up the road from there. And I used to drive through at least 3 or 4 times a week. Other than the train depot I didn't realize how interesting that area was. I may have to go back and visit now. Thanks.
You’re welcome Uncle Sticky.
Thank you for watching and commenting! I appreciate it!
Coming from Ohio, I was so intrigued to watch this, and another video you head out on Helltown. I had never heard of it before, and it’s legends are so intriguing. Thank you for a great story, and for sharing history, that needs to be remembered!
Thank you Lisa!
Ive heard about the government declaring eminent domain on HellTown, but I’ve never heard the story of Big Sam and the ‘Witch’. Thanks! Great video.
I'm so glad that you told the story about the poor residents of the area who had their homes, businesses and family farms taken from them. I believe that it is their pain that has birthed all the sad stories and legends. If anyone is interested, there is an excellent Frontline documentary from 1983 available on TH-cam about the forming of the CVNP. It's called For the Good of All. Just be prepared - it is heartbreaking.
Thanks for sharing this katwil89.
And thanks for watching and commenting!
Just found this channel, enjoy the Ohio ghost stories, I went to Memorial elementary school in Cleveland which was a replacement for the Collingwood school which caught fire in the early 1900s and many kids perished. Many instances of paranormal when I attended memorial in the 1960s. Good channel with good stories! Thanks! J.Kelley
Thanks John.
I have a friend who did a video at the memorial. Such a sad tale of what happened there. I’m not surprised there is paranormal activity.
Thank you for watching and commenting!
Thank you for sharing this story. It's the first time I have heard of this piece of history. About the witch of Hell Town.
Out of all the Ohio witch stories and Helltown stories I've heard, I'd never heard the Helltown witch story before. It sure sounds like the perfect allegory to me. I remember in the early 2000s the whole "Helltown" thing was really popular and everyone wanted to go there at night to catch a glimpse of some ghosts and Satanists. I think the legends got really out of hand and people forgot where the Helltown name really came from. The CVNP has certainly been a great gift to the state and the country, but you can't help but wonder if the government could've handled things differently.
On another note, there are probably so many stories about Peninsula and Boston Township that you could do a whole series on it. I think few of them have any historical merit, but they're all entertaining nonetheless.
Helltown isn’t what it used to be that’s for sure Space Ace. So much of it has been removed.
You’re absolutely right about the stories in that area. Just when I think I’m done reading everything there is to read about that place, something new pops up. It’s crazy!
Thanks again for your continued support of the channel. I really do appreciate it!
Feel sorry for these people referred to as Witches, when more often than not are just nature worshippers, healers and nothing sinister at all. May she and all the others RIP!
I feel the same way Dan.
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Dan de Lench......yes....some are also Spiritual......
Nature worship is witchcraft, and by nature blasphemy. It ignores the existence of GOD who made all.
@@Catquick1957 Some may hold that definition as truth, and practice it such, others can easily see His devine hand in it's making and the energies released and abound all around us!
Absolutely!
I had the pleasure of visiting Peninsula a few years ago, and really enjoyed it. I did not know about its dark” history of how some of the local citizens were treated and lost their homes. I want to come back and visit and explore more of the CV.
Your story of the history was very interesting. Thanks for posting!
Thank you for the kind words Joseph. I appreciate it.
And thanks for watching and commenting!
Can listen to u talk allday.. ur voice is so very calming & I absolutely LOVE history!!!!
So very kind of you to say! Thank you!😊😊😊
Found your site by accident. How enjoyable, so full if information. Subscribing. Look forward to more from you. Thank you.
Thank you Tetti! Welcome to the community! Glad you’re here!
And thanks for watching and commenting!
I’ve heard of HellTown and the government declaring eminent domain on it, but I’ve never heard the story of Big Sam and the ‘Witch’. I can’t believe all those townspeople stood around doing nothing while he killed her. That’s F’d up. Maybe she cursed the town too for not helping her, this is if she really did have powers. Thanks for the great video.
You know the part that pissed me off..everyone just watched and were too scared to do anything to help the woman.
Me too Greg. 😡
I like your method of historic story telling. I was mesmerized and hung on every word. Well done.
So nice of you to say! Thank you! 😊
1st time here and I liked it!! Certainly I SUBSCRIBED!! You did such a great job telling this story you made it so interesting with your demeanor and soft voice....thank you Linda from Michigan

I usually don't like the way these stories are presented as they are loud and flowery but this was very well presented. Simply the story with no noisy bells and whistles. Wish there were more straight forward presenters like you.
No flash here Stephanie. Just an old guy telling stories.
Thanks for this comment.
And thanks for watching!
New to your channel, love to hear a good story and a bit of history. Hello from your Canadian neighbour.
Oh Canada! Our home and native land!
Thanks for watching and commenting Julia! I really appreciate it!
Very well done, sir! I am considering doing something like this with some of the many local legends where I am. Something about these kinds of stories always excites me.
Go for it Chuck! I would love to see what you come up with!
Thanks for watching and commenting!
OMG I loved the story of WITCH OF HELLTOWN.
I'm so glad I stumbled upon your vlog I will definitely sign up .
One question though are your stories mainly centered in Ohio it doesn't matter though.
Thank you for a most interesting vlog.
Thank you so much for this Sandra and welcome!
Yes we are mainly centered in Ohio for now but are looking forward to researching other areas of the world.
Thanks for watching and commenting!
TY for the Tale, the Lore, the History. Moved to OH some 17, 18 years ago, about 20 miles from HELLTOWN. Think I’ll be heading there this Spring.
Many Blessings My Friend 🙏
Thank you Dead Already! Many blessings to you as well! 😊
i just found your channel today and I love it! Thanks for the good stuff ☺
Thank you for watching and commenting K! I really appreciate it!
Love it! It’s often hard to say what’s true in these old tales and what’s not, however the fun in it is how the listener feels when the story is told. Personally I believe a lot of truth is in these old tales and it leaves me saddened for those who had to endure the hardships. Like how we hear of the Salem witch trials. If it holds truth that it actually happened, I cannot believe that all who died and were persecuted, were in fact wicked, just like this story. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for watching and commenting Southern! I appreciate it!
What a sad story. I remember some of this story in the newspapers (yes, ink and paper, hot off the presses), but, I was not familiar with the back story. I am new to your vids, but, am hooked! Thank you for the work that went into the research, and story development.
Thank you for the kind words Victoria! I appreciate it!
I look forward to seeing you here again! 😊
Another hidden gem of a channel, going to enjoy binging on your videos!
Thank you Jodie! That’s awesome news! Welcome! 😊
Thank you very much for sharing your findings with a wonderful story. Look forward to viewing more. You have a nice day, Sir.
Have a great day Lisa! 😊😊😊
Another great story. Reminds me of Dogtown in Massachusetts. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you MrDoeboy. I appreciate you watching and commenting. I must get out to Massachusetts sometime. Your comments are inspiring!
@@CuriousHistoryYT just the Salem history is worth the trip.
@@MrDoeboy356 I would imagine so. October in Salem Mass sounds fantastic!

I have just begun hearing some of the stories of “Helltown” despite having lived 25 min away for 40 years! I’m planning on going on some walks in the valley it appears. Looking for suggestions and I hope your page gives some Guidence.
I was like 667 on this video. 😂👍
There are so many fantastic places to visit in the valley Fyodor. And so much history. I would suggest starting in Peninsula. Great town with plenty of well maintained trails.
Any of the lock trailheads would do well for you too.
Thanks for watching and commenting!
I live right up the street from helltown lol. I live up on the hill from Boston mills ski resort. I've been to helltown three times. Just discovering all of these stories now. The wendigo stories are interesting to me since I've always heard crazy unnatural screams at night for years! I'm scared that what I'm hearing all the time is a wendigo!
Josh! You know you’re NOT supposed to say its name right!?!
There are no screams! You don’t hear anything!
@@CuriousHistoryYT I'm already freaked out enough my man please don't say stuff like that. I'm looking more into why helltown was seized exactly. I'm starting to believe it was a military mission gone wrong. I don't think there was a "chemical spill" but i think it has to do something with "IT"
What do you know about "it"
@@CuriousHistoryYT THE W CULT! I JUST FOUND OUT WHAT HAPPENED! I NEED TO GET OUT OF THIS TOWN! IT'S SURROUNDED BY EVIL!
Wow I'm from Ohio and all my ghost hunting I have never heard of her wven knowing about hell town. Thank you for this video I will be going to this spot in October🧡

This is the first time I've seen your channel. Thank you for the stories of a place I hadn't heard of before, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Thank you for watching and commenting Grayivan! Please don’t be a stranger!
I grew up right up the hill from Brandywine ski and the valley was our playground for a couple decades. We spent a lot of time playing in Mutane / hell town.
Great story telling sir! It was very captivating. As you clarified at the end this is most likely a story. People tried of witchcraft are not laid to rest in cemetery's because they are on godly in the time. I very much enjoyed the video though
Thank you for this Cori! I was actually shocked at how many people took the witch story literally. Especially when I call it a legend 4 times within the first minute of the video!
I guess I need to work on making myself more clear. That’s on me.
Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and comment!
I really appreciate it!
As I said you told this in a great way and it was enjoyable. I'm a Little bit of a history nerd and I love these type of videos

Subscribed & loving the channel. Thank you for these interesting, haunting, true stories from someone who grew up in Ohio!

I suggest watching the documentry called, Helltown...there is so much more to this story involving the government, why they took it and why it took so long to make it a National park...its wild
Thanks for watching and commenting Margi! I appreciate it!
So after Big Sam clutched his chest in the barn from having a heart attack, did he run out and tell someone the story of talking to the goat, and it’s eyes being like the witches, then run back to the barn and finish his heart attack and die? Otherwise, how would anyone know the part about him talking to the goat, and it’s eyes and all? I know it’s just supposed to be a story. But to anyone who puts actual stock in this hoopla, ask yourself questions like that.
Maybe the goat said something? 🤷♂️

I was only curious about the person or persons that murdered this female human being that you keep calling a witch. Really you calling her a witch is the scary part. Any of the people there who called her a witch and claim to have captured her are scary people and if they drowned her they are a group of murderers. To blame her as a witch, actually points to the people that killed her as sociopathic believing in witches and then murdered her. It is really sad to see that a town would post a video blaming the victim that they murdered using sociopathic schizoid effective language of magical thinking turning her quote a witch. My Hope is that the people that murdered her will eventually be brought to Justice and the man in this video should probably be taken to the police station to be interviewed about what he knows about the poor ladies murder
Well considering that it’s only a legend Stacey, I’m not sure any of that will come to pass.
But thank you for watching and commenting!
I know of someone individuals who call themselves witches. The one lady acts like she’s proud of it. But, these people are Pagans. Also some are Wicca? And the practice magic in this manner as well as Paganism who believe in many Gods. Not one like myself. Unfortunately they were killed in horrible type circumstances but I would really or care not to have much to do with them. I’m I guess old fashioned in that manner. But if they are really good people I would change my mind. Most definitely. Thanks I’m going to listen to the video now. I usually read the comments first.
Thanks for the comment Carrie! Yep there are pleasant and unpleasant people in all walk of life.
I hope you enjoy the video!
