In Episode 408: The Cursed Land of the Black Hawk War, we are joined by Evan, who tells us about growing up on land that is seemingly cursed. Evan lived on property that was once a sacred hunting ground for the Potawatomi tribe and the Menomonee tribe. At some point, the Menomonee tribe betrayed the Potowatomi and sold them out in the Black Hawk War, which resulted in the Potawatomi’s land being sold to German settlers. In an unexpected turn for the Menomonee, the German settlers pushed them out too, and desecrated their holy land by building a church right on top of the grounds. In that church is where Evan grew up and lived seven days a week. Evan’s grandfather purchased the land after the war and it has been in his family ever since. Many of Evan’s family members have been plagued with their own paranormal experiences in this home, and Evan was no different. He was tormented night after night by a violent shadow figure that pushed him down the stairs so many times that he began scooting down them instead of walking upright. He would also see a wolf in the woods behind his house that would stand and watch him. Evan recalls there being satanic carvings in the crawl spaces of the church, and has had a black figure following him his whole life. These are just some of the many experiences he shares about living on the cursed land of the Black Hawk War.
