The Bell Witch

The Bell Witch

Happy one year anniversary Ghouligans!🎉🥂 👻 Today, we celebrate the birth of our coven by covering a long-time favorite: The Bell Witch. In the 1800s, the Bell family moved to a quiet farm in Tennessee… but by 1817, this farm was anything but quiet. What started as strange animal sightings quickly escalated into violent attacks, disembodied voices, and a presence that seemed to know everything, and everyone. This entity tormented the family for years, targeting one child in particular and ultimately claiming a life. With hundreds of alleged witnesses (including a future U.S. president) this case remains one of the most infamous and debated hauntings in American history. Because if a ghost can slap you, roast you, ruin your love life, and predict the future… What exactly are you dealing with? Was this really a witch? A spirit? Or something…human? 🕯️Light a candle, grab some sage, and settle in for the legendary story of the Bell Witch. Got a story to tell?

The Phoenix Canal Murders: Hiding in Plain Sight

In 1992, along a quiet bike path in Phoenix, Arizona, 21 year old Angela Brosso set out for an evening ride and never came home. Ten months later, another young woman vanished along that same route. What followed became one of Arizona’s most disturbing unsolved cases, marked by brutal violence and a killer who seemed to disappear without a trace. For more than two decades, the Phoenix Canal Murders remained a mystery, until advances in DNA technology uncovered a suspect no one expected... A man who lived openly within the community. A man who posed for photos with police officers. A man known for dressing as the “Zombie Hunter,” embracing a very public persona. In this episode, we dive into the murders, the decades-long investigation, and the chilling truth about the man hiding in plain sight. Got a story to tell?

A Haunting at 30 East Drive: Britain’s Black Monk of Pontefract

On a quiet street in Pontefract, a modest brick home became the center of one of the most violent and well-documented hauntings in British history. What began as strange noises, moving objects, and silly goose behavior, quickly escalated into something far more terrifying...an unseen force that could throw furniture, manipulate reality, and respond intelligently to anyone who challenged it. As the Pritchard family struggled to understand what was happening inside 30 East Drive, the activity grew darker, more targeted, and impossible to ignore. When a hooded figure in black robes began appearing throughout the home, the haunting took on a name that still lingers today: The Black Monk of Pontefract.
