Make a wish, Jeff.

You don't see too many old wells like this one anymore.

No, you don't.

For one, they're dangerous. And two, people are nuts. And who knows what they'll dump down there and contaminate the water? Or who they'll dump down there, right? Right. I'm going to get back up from the edge now. Yeah, yeah. So we've seen a lot of the same horror movies. and while this isn't the exact well we're looking for, we are looking for a haunted well in Sabatis, Maine today.

All right. What's the story with the Sabatis Well? So they say 20 years ago, some kids lowered a friend down there, and when he came back up, his hair turned white, and he lost his mind.

I'm Jeff Belanger and welcome to episode 262 of the New England Legends podcast.

And I'm Ray Osier. Thanks for riding along with us as we chronicle every legend in New England one story at a time.

And you can see an appearance schedule for me and Ray. My story tours, making stops all over New England this fall, and Ray's band The Pub Kings. Now before we go looking for this haunted well, we want to take just a minute to tell you about our sponsor, Nuadi Herbils. New Adi Herbles has been very busy this summer. They've launched two new flavored teas, peach nilla and blueberry cinnamon. Both are delicious. Yes, they are. And Newadi Herbils just launched their new busy paws hand cream, which is great because as the weather starts to dry out, so do my hands, Ray. And I have no shame in admitting. I use hand cream. Jeff gives the best hand shakes with those soft hands. I appreciate that, Ray. Now, if you've been listening to the last couple of episodes, you know, Ray and I both got COVID last month. That's right. I got to tell you, I drank the healer tea from Nuwati Herbales. Every day I was sick.

Same.

And it helped me feel better faster. I went through one week where I felt like I had the worst man cold in human history. And the healer tea helped open up my sinuses and relieve some of that awful pressure. I love that Newadi Her Herbils products are made from all natural ingredients.

I spend decades of my life polluting myself, so it feels good to do a little reset with the teas,

bombs, and soaps. Let New Adi Herbils help support your healthy lifestyle. Check out the newadi Herbils website to see all of their great products and you. You get 20% off your

We don't have a whole lot to go on other than it's the back of a Sabatis cemetery near the ruins of an old barn.

Got it. All right. Here's a little more info on Sabatis. The closest city is Louisston, Maine,

about five miles to the west. Sabatis is a small town. It was founded in 1788, and today

boasts a population of just over 5,000 people. And it has no less than nine cemeteries.

Nine.

Nine.

So we'll have our work cut out for us.

Luckily, with a little recon, we were able to hone in on sandborne cemetery in the northwestern part of town.

Okay. Sandborn Cemetery is pretty small.

What do you think?
