The Bell Witch: An American Haunting by Brent Monahan
Requirements: M4B Player | 166 MB
Known throughout Tennessee as “Old Kate”, the Bell Witch took up residence with John Bell’s family in 1818. It was a cruel and noisy spirit, given to knocking and gnawing sounds before finding its own voices. With these voices and supernatural acts, the Bell Witch tormented the Bell family.
This extraordinary tale recounts the only documented case in U.S. History when a spirit “actually caused a man’s death”. The then local schoolteacher and later senator, Richard Powell, witnessed these strange events and recorded them in a diary for his daughter. He died in 1948. His astonishing manuscript fell into the hands of novelist Brent Monohan, who edited it for this retelling.
