Thunder in the valley
On a summer day in the early 1980s, Cathy Wilson heard an eerie noise coming from her backyard. It sounded, impossibly, like thunder. Fellow residents of Moodus, Connecticut reported the same thing: a series of cracks and roars coming from the Earth.
It turns out that Moodus residents have been hearing these sorts of sounds for hundreds of years. And I decided to go there to investigate — just what are these strange noises?
This story appeared on Stylus, an experimental documentary series about sound, music, and listening, presented by WBUR.
Nice pic of our house, and it was a pleasure to share my story with you.
