What happened two hundred years ago to the Bell family of northern Tennessee? Was there a malignant entity who openly afflicted the family over a period of five years causing the death of John Bell and irretrievably disrupting the life of young Betsy Bell who bore the brunt of the punishments doled out by the Bell Witch? Numerous accounts and witnesses of the time indicate a supernatural origin of the Witch. Even the famous Andrew Jackson apparently ran afoul of the Bell Witch when he visited the Bell home. For over two centuries, supernatural and psychic explanations have been the accepted wisdom surrounding the Bell Witch. Now, author Paul Herndon, who grew up near the historic Bell farm in northern Tennessee, offers his own theory on the origins of the Bell Witch and the role of Betsy Bell as the central protagonist surrounding the two-hundred-year-old mystery.
