The entity known as the Bell Witch is truly unique, and will challenge any previous notions of what you think of as a witch. The entity entered the Bell's life quietly and eventually over time ragged into a violent and malevolent poltergeist. What really makes this tale unique is three things. First, this entity spoke plainly and in English, second, it affected an entire community of hundreds of individuals, and finally, it actually murdered or claimed to have murdered John Bell.
