Episode description

This week we're discussing what's known as "America's Greatest Ghost Story." We're discussing the attacks of the "spirit" on the Bell Family and their neighbors, who was thought to be the real Bell Witch, presidential encounters, and possible real poisons that could've been disguised as the witch's attacks.
