Water Babies of Massacre Rocks – USA

Nearest city: Pocatello, Idaho

Along the Snake River near Massacre Rocks State Park, visitors tell of hearing the cries of ghostly infants. According to Shoshone legend, during a time of famine some families drowned their babies in the river rather than let them starve, and their spirits linger. Modern witnesses report phantom wails, splashing in calm water, and fleeting apparitions of small figures at the shoreline. The legend of the Water Babies remains one of Idaho’s most chilling pieces of folklore.
