Descripción

Today, we’re going to explore a case that merges true crime and the paranormal. It's the ONLY case that legitimately does both of those things at the same time, because it’s the one and only time a ghost’s testimony was used as evidence in a court of law. We’re talking about Zona Heaster Shue, also known as the Greenbriar Ghost.

episode S2: E3 The Bell Witch artwork

S2: E3 The Bell Witch

In this episode, we explore the chilling legend of the Bell Witch, one of America’s most famous haunts. It began in 1817 on the farm of John Bell Sr. in Adams, Tennessee. What started as strange noises and unexplained disturbances soon escalated into violent encounters, disembodied voices, and a spirit known as “Kate” that allegedly targeted the Bell family — especially Betsy Bell. We examine the most famous claims, including physical attacks, the death of John Bell, and even a rumored visit from Andrew Jackson, all while looking at what is documented and what might be legend.

episode 15. Haunted Appalachia artwork

15. Haunted Appalachia

“Haunted Appalachia” covers an entire body of folklore, ghost traditions, cryptids and superstitions that stretch across the Appalachian Mountains from southern New York to northern Alabama. Today, we’re going to discuss the Indigenous origins of many of these tales, how their stories blended with Pioneer interpretations, and where these stories stand today. And remember, if you’re in the mountains and you hear someone call your name… no you didn’t. References: * Mooney, J. (1900). Myths of the Cherokee. Government Printing Office.
