The Story
Morgan’s Corner is associated with the familiar urban legend of a couple stranded beneath a tree. The boyfriend leaves to find help; the girlfriend hears scraping above the car, later explained as his hanging body. Local reporting separates that traveling legend from the real 1948 killing of Therese Wilder in the area. Both have shaped the bend’s haunting reputation.
