The trail off Plymouth Street

Massachusetts · United States · Road

The story says a whole troop of girl scouts went into these Massachusetts woods for a Halloween sleepover and none of them came out. That did not happen.

The account attached to the trail off Plymouth Street at Whitman, Massachusetts is that in the early 1900s a girl scout troop held a Halloween sleepover in the first cabin from the trailhead, five years running, with the same supervisor.

On the fifth year the girls went further into the woods to sleep, and the next morning, when their parents came to collect them, none of them came out.

That did not happen.

The disappearance of an entire troop of children would be one of the most famous unsolved cases in American history. There is no such case. There are no names, no newspapers, no search and no families.

We keep the entry because the legend is genuinely told locally and people go looking for the cabin on the strength of it. The trail and the woods are real. The girls are not.
