Red Barn Media’s interest in Dudleytown was sparked when it learned that the area is reportedly one of the most active epicenters of paranormal activity in the world, with hundreds of “phenomena” reported on an annual basis.  Once an historic settlement, many, if not all, of its inhabitants reportedly met with ill fate, murder, insanity, and suicide, and now the village is abandoned -- only old stone foundations, and trespassers are forbidden to enter by its now private landowners.  There are reports of wispy apparitions and strange haze and mists that circulate through the dark Dudleytown woods.  Once inside the woods surrounded by the shadows of three mountains, it appears almost as if it is night on even the brightest of days.  Photos on the web taken in Dudleytown claim to have globules or streaks of light visible, and at times form faces or facial features; strange mists or warped effects are present.  Some claim to experience overwhelming and sudden feelings of terror upon visiting the tainted ground.  Others say that they have felt psychic cold spots – claiming that the temperature feels sub-zero in pocket areas or spots.  Some claim to have seen mysterious eyes, lights, sights and sounds from the woods.  There are also reports of extreme poltergeist activities – being punched, slapped, shoved, sudden changes in personality, and even outbreaks of sudden insanity and madness.  

Dan Aykroyd, the actor, is reported to have said that Dudleytown is the “scariest place on Earth,” and Dennis Hauck, a renowned paranormal specialist, claims that Dudleytown is “considered one of the most haunted locations in the United States”.  The Legend says that Dudleytown is damned, the legacy of the “Curse” placed on the Dudley family by King Henry VIII and his demonic minions nearly five hundred years ago in England.  The sons of the cursed family are said to have fled England and settled in Dudleytown, Connecticut where the “Curse” is said to have followed them.

Seeking to capitalize on a grass roots effort to complete its indie film, Red Barn Media is using creative ways to finance the completion of its film, including an online fundraising campaign on IndieGoGo.com (http://www.indiegogo.com/Dudleytown-Curse-the-49th-Key-Po...).  

                  You can watch the latest Red Barn Media video on Youtube on the origin of the Dudleytown Curse in 16th century England by King Henry VIII which was taken from found footage of an unfinished documentary by Heath Van Enroe who went missing in Dudleytown in 2009 - according to the story.
