Who tortured the Bell family 200 years ago, and why? It’s a question that historians and tourists who still flock to the scene have asked and tried to answer since it happened. Was it a sinister, evil force that came to get revenge on the Bell family or was it a jilted lover who wanted the hand of one of the Bell daughters? To unravel the mystery, you have to go back to the summer of 1817, where something was very, very wrong. Come gather with me round the cauldron and I'll tell you about the mystery of The Bell Witch.
