Beware the Bell Witch

Beware the Bell Witch Synopsis

Miles Watley is pretty sure heâ s going to die of boredom when his family moves to the small town of Adams, Tennessee. The only thing that is remotely interesting to him is the Bell Witch Cave that local lore claims is haunted. While exploring the cave, he and his brother, Ryder, spot a young girl who simply vanishes into the darkness.

Shortly after, weird, ghostly things start happening in his familyâ s new house, the most perplexing of which is Ryderâ s strange behavior and his dadâ s mysterious illness. It becomes clear that the Watleys have something the ghost wants. It isnâ t their house, is it?

Every state has its own spine-tingling stories of ghosts and mysterious hauntings grounded in its regional history. The Haunted States of America series uses real-life ghost lore as jumping-off points to new, chilling tales. An authorâ s note provides historical origins and fascinating facts, but beware: sometimes real life is stranger than fiction.
