Bell Witch Background
In the early 1800s, in rural Adams, Tennessee, a supernatural force unleashed a reign of terror on the family of John Bell that was so horrendous, it eventually took the man’s life.
This haunting has never been about mere menacing apprehensions allegedly witnessed by a few. It’s about violent physical attacks that have injured countless people, and at one time, routinely
disrupted local church services with its disembodied, blasphemer voice.
These and other supernatural anomalies happening in and
around the Bell Witch Cave have been witnessed by thousands of people over the course of two centuries.

The ominous-looking iron gate at the entrance to the cave is only effective in keeping physical beings out. Unfortunately, it does nothing to deter spirits from getting in—nor out.

Among the witnesses
was the seventh president of the United States, Andrew Jackson,
who is reported to have said of his experience, “I’d rather take
on the whole British Army, than to face the wrath of the Bell
Witch!”
Many people today believe that the Bell Witch never left the
area, but still dwells in the cave—the Bell Witch Cave—believed
by leading parapsychologists to be the most haunted site in America.
But the cause of the haunting, until today, remained a mystery.
Now there is proof that not only establishes that supernatural
forces are in fact there—it explains why.
