The Blood-Heart Apples of Micah Rood | Haunted Folklore & a Chilling New England Legend
Description
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.
