Where is Spicket Falls, Massachusetts located?
Spicket Falls, MA where Jeff Tribe lives is an imagined location. It’s an amalgamation of my hometown of Methuen, Massachusetts, and the surrounding mill towns of Lawrence, Haverhill, and Lowell. The Spicket River is real and runs through Methuen. There is a small falls in the center of town behind the fire station. The town of Earnest, NC, in Intentional Take is also an imagined location. Earnest is a combination of an area on the northern bank of the Cape Fear where there is a small dock out over the river with a sign next to it warning about crocodiles, a town off Route 421 that mostly consists of a traffic circle, and several locations in and around Wilmington, North Carolina.
