Bell Witch
The Bell Witch is a traditional Ghost story in Southern American Folklore. The story
originates from the Bell family who were a family living in Tennessee from 1817 til
1935, they said they experienced strange events. This was the precursor to John Bell
Jr.'s book which was about this legend in Folklore.
This tale has inspired three very famous movies, they are the following in chronological order; The Blair Witch Project (1999), The Bell Witch Haunting (2004) and An American Haunting (2006).
According to very limited writings and mainly word of mouth, we believe that the hauntings started in 1817 and were first seen by a Mr. John Bell Sr. He claimed to encounter a weird animal made out of lots of different animals. Pat Fitzhugh retold the story a while back, in it Pat went over the possibilities of a return from the Bell witch in 1935 on the Bell property. Its said that "the faint sounds of people talking and children playing can sometimes be heard in the area". Read More
A black cat is a feline whose fur is uniformly all black, or almost all black. It
is not a particular breed of cat and may be mixed or of a specific breed. The all-black
pigmentation is equally prevalent in both male and female cats. In Western history,
black cats have often been looked upon as a symbol of evil omens: in other cultures
they are considered to be good omens. Black cats have been found to have lower odds
of adoption in American shelters compared to other colors (except brown).
There are at least three Devil's Chairs located in cemeteries in the United States, associated with urban legends.
Florida
The Devil's Chair in Cassadaga, Florida is a graveside bench in the cemetery that borders Cassadaga and Lake Helen. Cassadega has a reputation as a haven for occultists, mediums and other spiritualist sorts. Local legend perpetuates the Devil-as-good-ol'-boy image: one of the stories insists that if you leave an unopened can of beer on the chair, it will be empty by morning. Accounts vary; in some of them, the can's opened, in others, the beer is simply gone, like magic, through the unopened top. Furthermore, if you yourself sit in the chair, you run the chance of having a heart-to-heart with the Prince of Darkness, who is rumoured to show up anyone who dares to wait for him there.
Iowa
The Devil's Chair in Guthrie Center, Iowa, is a cement-cast chair located in Union Cemetery. It's situated between two graves and is unmarked as belonging to either. Local legend attaches bad luck to it, intimating that to sit in the chair courts that bad luck for oneself. While the cemetery itself was established as a private burial ground in 1885, the legend of the chair only goes back for approximately thirty years.
Missouri
The Devil's Chair in the Mary Immaculate Cemetery of Kirksville, Missouri is the work of a marble cutter, John C. Baird, and is involved in "numerous legends of a type widely replicated across the U.S., especially in rural and small-town communities, and beloved of young people.... Some versions say that something dreadful will happen to the person so bold as to be seated in it at midnight (or on a particular evening, such as Hallowe'en) -- a hand will emerge from the grave and drag the impious one down to the underworld."
Devils Chairs
A young girl is left home alone with only her dog (often a German shepherd or collie) to protect her. When night approaches, she locks all the doors and tries to lock all the windows, but one in the basement won't close.
She decides to leave it open, but locks the basement door and goes to bed. Her dog takes its customary place under her bed.
In the deep of night she awakens to a dripping sound coming from the bathroom. The girl is too scared to go check so she reaches her hand under the bed. She feels a reassuring lick from her dog and falls back to sleep. She reawakens to the dripping sound, reaches her hand down to the dog where she feels the reassuring lick and falls back to sleep. Once more, she awakens to the dripping sound. She reaches her hand down and feels the lick of her dog.
Now curious about the dripping sound, she gets up and slowly walks towards the bathroom, the dripping sound getting louder as she approaches. She reaches the bathroom and turns on the light. She is greeted by a horrific sight; hanging from the shower nozzle is her dog with its throat slit open and its blood dripping into the bathtub.
Something on the bathroom mirror catches her eye; she turns around. Written on the bathroom mirror in her dog's blood are the words "HUMANS CAN LICK TOO".
The Licked Hand
Bloody Mary is a ghost or witch featured in Western folklore. She is said to appear
in a mirror when her name is called three times (or sometimes more, depending upon
the version of the story), often as part of a game at slumber parties. Other very
similar tales use different names for the character including Mary Worth, Mary Worthington,
and Hell Mary among others.[1]
In folklore and children's street culture, "Bloody Mary" is a game in which a ghost of the same name (or sometimes other names, such as "Mary Worth") is said to appear in a mirror when summoned. One of the more common ways participants attempt to make her appear is to stand before a mirror in the dark (most commonly in a bathroom) and repeat her name three times, though there are many variations. Some include chanting a hundred times, chanting at midnight, spinning around, rubbing one's eyes, running the water, or chanting her name thirteen times with a lit candle. In some versions of the legend, the summoner must say, "Bloody Mary, I killed your son!" or "I killed your baby." In these variants, Bloody Mary is often believed to be the spirit of a mother (often a widow) who murdered her children, or a young mother whose baby was stolen from her, which made her go mad in grief and she eventually committed suicide. In stories where Mary is supposed to have been wrongly accused of killing her children, the querent might say "I believe in Mary Worth." This is similar to another game involving the summoning of the Bell Witch in a mirror at midnight. The game is often a test of courage, as it is said that if Bloody Mary is summoned, she would proceed to kill the summoner in an extremely violent way, such as ripping his or her face off, scratching his or her eyes out, driving the person insane or bringing the person into the mirror with her. Some versions say that if you chant her name thirteen times at midnight into a mirror she will appear and you can talk to a deceased person until 12:01, when Bloody Mary and the dead person you asked to speak to will vanish. Other variations say that the querent must not look directly at her, but at her image in the mirror; she will then reveal the querent's future, particularly concerning marriage and children.Read More
Bloody Mary
The bogeyman (also spelled boogyman, bogyman, boogieman, boogey monster, or boogeyman) is a booger or legendary ghost-like monster. The bogeyman has no specific appearance, and conceptions of the monster can vary drastically even from household to household within the same community; in many cases he simply has no set appearance in the mind of a child, but is just an amorphous embodiment of terror. Bogeyman can be used metaphorically to denote a person or thing of which someone has an irrational fear. Parents often say that if their child is naughty, the bogeyman will get them, in an effort to make them behave[citation needed]. The bogeyman legend may originate from Scotland, where such creatures are sometimes called bogles, boggarts, or bogies. Read More
