ABOUT BELL WITCH: THE MOVIE Bell Witch: The Movie is inspired by the most terrifying, supernatural event in American history. Documented by the State of Tennessee, the Bell Witch haunted and tormented an early pioneer family, ultimately murdering the family patriarch, John Bell, and inflicting a reign of terror throughout the surrounding community. These disturbances took place during the 1800s in Robertson County, Tennessee, near the present-day town of Adams. The Bell Witch's character was enigmatic assuming many different forms, speaking with disembodied voices, and manifesting itself as a poltergeist. The Bell Witch wreaked havoc with the violent physical torture of the Bell family as well as attacks upon the frequent visitors to the Bell home. Over the years, many independent eyewitness accounts of this haunting have been written which have firmly established the story's credibility. These accounts include, but are not limited to, sworn affidavits, verbal accounts by members of the clergy, and detailed manuscripts penned by those who experienced direct encounters with the Bell Witch, including General (later President) Andrew Jackson. As you will find, the story of the Bell Witch is the most unusual and horrifying of all the legendary ghost stories BE SURE TO EXPLORE ALL FOUR OF THE WEB SITES FROM BELL WITCH: THE MOIVE WWW.BELLWITCHTHEMOVIE.COM WWW.BELLWITCHSOUNDTRACK.COM WWW.BELLWITCHTHEBOOK.COM WWW.BELLWITCHPREMIERE.COM WATCH BEHIND THE SCENES: MAKING THE SOUNDTRACK FOR BELL WITCH: THE MOVIE FROM EACH BAND'S PERSPECTIVE.
