The Blood-Heart Apples of Micah Rood | Haunted Folklore & a Chilling New England Legend
About this episode
The episode explores the chilling legend of the blood-heart apples of Micah Rood, tied to a historical murder in Connecticut.
In early eighteenth-century Connecticut, a murdered peddler was found buried beneath Micah Rood’s apple tree, his skull shattered and his money gone. When the tree bloomed again, its white blossoms had turned red, and the apples it bore were said to carry a blood-like stain at their core.
