The Bell Witch Project: Poltergeist - Ghosts - Exorcisms And The Supernatural In Early American History (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781606111895)

Here are America's earliest and most frightening tales of the unexplained -- with a new overview of the scariest poltergeist case of all time -- THE BELL WITCH

You've seen the various Hollywood horror movie variations of this horrifying American poltergeist case -- but these cinematic efforts have never done justice to what really happened in Tennessee back in 1817 that created mass hysteria and even caused a soon to be president -- General Andrew Jackson -- to feel the wrath of this horrid specter from beyond the grave. The Bells were an upright farming family said to have incurred the ire of one Kate Batts who put a deathbed curse on the Bells that defies all rational understanding.

REVEALED IN THIS VOLUME

** -- Super psychic Shawn Robbins, a protege of the late ghost hunter, Dr Hans Holzer, was able to "revisit" the scene of the Bell Witch haunting and gain new insight into the nearly two hundred years old curse.

** -- The highly respected paranormal researcher, Paul Eno (host of Behind The Paranormal), recounts stories of vampires in New England in the 18th and 19th centuries and also tells the little-known story of an invasion of demonic specter "hooligans."

** -- Journey with Tim Beckley to the historically haunted locales of Jerome, Arizona, and Sleepy Hollow, New York, where ghostly spirits and disembodied voices seem to have established a haven and interact frequently with visitors.

** -- Acclaimed writer Sean Casteel contributes accounts of phantoms and monsters as well as a synopsis of a case of demonic possession that occurred in another New England clergyman's home some 20 years before the trials in Salem made everyone vulnerable to the charge. Also, read about the lesser known Salem witch trial of 1878 in which one Christian Scientist sued another over the "mind crime" of Malicious Animal Magnetism. And let us not forget the stories of swamp women -- flying creatures -- and specters and phantoms and things that go bump in the night and continue to scare us all to this very day.
