Scary -- And True!!

The Bell Witch: An American Haunting (1997, Brent Monohan) is a retelling of a terrifying ordeal endured by an early 1800's Tennessee family. What makes this story so frightening is the power of the human mind, and what people can do when pushed to the absolute limit of their tolerance.

And by the way...don't bother with the movie version of this book, unless you are looking for a murky, jerky costume picture where you can see 1818 school kids playing soccer and a photo of an 1820 wedding couple. It is an inaccurate sadly skewed misrepresentation of a fascinating story.

Terrific book for fans of The Unexplained. Disappointing movie for fans of the book.
