In the final installment of our Bell Witch series, we’re throwing open the trapdoor and diving headfirst down the rabbit hole. It’s time to talk theories—what really happened on that Tennessee farm in the 1800s? Was it a ghost, a witch, a poltergeist… or something even stranger?

We’re unpacking everything from cultural context to psychic projection to why some stories age like haunted wine and others... not so much. And for the first time ever, Nicole shares a theory about the infamous "talking" of the Bell Witch that—despite all the research—she hasn’t seen anyone else bring up. Spoiler: it’s weird, it’s compelling, and honestly? It might be the most likely explanation of all.

Bring your open minds, your skepticism, and maybe a pinch of salt—we’re connecting the dots, crossing the veils, and wrapping up this series the only way we know how: with curiosity, cackles, and just a lil’ bit of chaos.

In Part Two of our Bell Witch series, we’re joined by our very good (and very haunted) friend Eric—aka Sir Talking Hair—for a retelling of the bizarre experiences we had during and after our visit to the Bell Witch property. Spoiler alert: something may have followed us home? Love that for us!

From handprints to tech glitches, we’re diving into the real-life aftermath of poking the paranormal bear. And THEN—for the first time ever—we perform a live investigation right here on the podcast. Of what, you ask? Oh, just the rocks we may or may not have (definitely did) take from the Bell Witch Cave.

Did things get weird? Yes.
Are we still having paranormal activity in our house as of today? Also yes.
Will we ever learn? Absolutely not. 🤪

Light your warding candles and buckle up, this one’s a wild ride, ghoulies!! 👻

Welcome to Part One of our deep dive into one of the most iconic hauntings in American lore: the Bell Witch. This week, we’re cracking open the ghostly grimoire and sifting through the stories, superstitions, and straight-up what-the-hells that surround this infamous Tennessee spirit.

Was it a vengeful neighbor with a flair for the dramatic? A full-blown witchy poltergeist situation? Or just a family drama that got wildly out of hand and picked up some spooky fanfic along the way? We’re breaking down the “history,” exploring the earliest accounts, and side-eyeing the inconsistencies—because you know we’re not just here to read dusty old stories, we’re here to dig deeper.

So light a protection candle, pour yourself a drink, and get ready for creepy voices, ghost slaps, and some truly unhinged 1800s energy. The Bell Witch is in the house... and she brought receipts.
