BELL WITCH LEGEND
A FAMILY WAS PLAGUED BY THE BELL WITCH SO THEY MOVED AND
THE BELL WITCH MOVED WITH THEM. SHE APPEARED IN WHITE.
EVERYTIME SHE APPEARED SOMETHING AWFUL WOULD HAPPEN
TO THE FAMILY. I BELIEVE SHE TOLD THEM ABOUT ONE
OF THE WARS (WORLD WARS). "I WILL RETURN IN SEVEN
YEARS," SHE SAID AND TO LOOK FOR HER CAUSE SHE'D
BE BACK AND SOMETHING TERRIBLE WOULD HAPPEN. AND
SURE ENOUGH, SHE RETURNED IN SEVEN YEARS. SHE'D TELL
THEM THAT SHE'D BE BACK AT A CERTAIN TIME AND
SURE ENOUGH SHE'D BE BACK AND SOMETHING TERRIBLE
WOULD HAPPEN.
