TDW 1711 - Legend Of The Bell Witch

0:04 a beautiful rainy day in Kentucky

0:04 currently heading

0:06 southbound some would say it's raining

0:08 cats and dogs I would not be one of

0:11 those people though because if it was

0:12 raining cats and dogs it would be

0:14 moderately terrifi whoa what the heck is

0:20 that over there on the left that is a

0:22 pink

0:29 elephant well all right then that just

0:29 happened welcome everyone Adam the woo

0:31 here it's my second channel daily Vlog

0:33 channel it's

0:35 the this was not coordinated on purpose

0:37 I assure

0:39 you if a daily wo entering a little

0:43 Community called

0:44 pimbrook or it might be pronounced Pim

0:47 Brook it's spelled Pim Brook but I'm

0:50 going to guess it's pronounced Pim Brook

0:54 you can see just how much rain has

0:56 fallen in this area in the last day or

0:59 so the three crosses along Main Street

1:02 it's not uncommon for most small towns

1:05 but these have very sturdy platforms

1:08 almost as if you could get up there and

1:10 stand in the place they might use these

1:13 on occasion probably around the holidays

1:15 boy that rain is just coming down on the

1:18 horizon on those fields no crops that

1:22 can benefit from it but plenty of rain

1:24 at first glance it looks like a water

1:27 tower but upon further in

1:30 investigation I think it's some sort of

1:32 weather system like one of them dopplers

1:35 I think that's one of those I think

1:36 that's one of those dopplers just as a

1:39 comparison that's a water tower and it

1:41 looks really cool next to that next to

1:44 that steeple this is something you don't

1:45 see too often a vintage 7even up sign

1:49 still hanging on the side of a business

1:51 and a Coca-Cola

1:53 mural but I want to know what is this

1:57 what is this three or four-way light

2:01 next to this other light right there

2:04 what is that one thing's for sure if you

2:07 lived out here you wouldn't have to

2:08 worry about noise

2:10 pollution in fact late at night you can

2:12 probably even hear the soothing sounds

2:15 of the

2:16 coyotes are there are there coyotes out

2:19 in Kentucky okay it's official this cow

2:24 is the coolest cow I've ever seen he has

2:28 glasses on yeah yes you take the cake

2:31 buddy and uh I'm sensing some sort of

2:35 theme here two pink elephants in one

2:40 state bizarre there has to be a

2:43 reason there has to be a

2:53 reason I needed a turn around this one

2:53 was as good as

2:59 any these things are pretty cool not in

2:59 in operation anymore but there's a bunch

3:02 of them mysterious looking

3:05 Mansion here on the left that is

3:08 incredible little cherubs up there in

3:11 the windows the long HSE General

3:14 Store sweet vintage Pepsi sign and with

3:18 that crossing over state line into

3:23 Tennessee good to see you I really like

3:26 the name of this town because it's named

3:28 after my name

3:30 but look closely on that sign and you

3:32 will see a witch this is the hometown of

3:36 the one and only Bell

3:39 Witch this should be interesting not

3:42 forgiving is like eating rat poison and

3:46 waiting for the rat to

3:48 die that's some fire and brimstone

3:51 preaching right there they even have a

3:53 sign stating that her

3:56 cave is about a quarter of a mile this

3:59 way it looks like I'm not allowed back

4:02 there currently in fact the gate is

4:05 locked up and a huge sign saying alcohol

4:10 profanity pets and video

4:14 cameras strictly prohibited what are

4:17 they hiding back there what is the witch

4:20 hiding off one of the other roads in

4:23 town I found this information plaque to

4:26 the north was the farm of John Bell and

4:29 early prominent settler from North

4:30 Carolina according to the legend his

4:33 family was visited by the Bell Witch in

4:36 the 19th century she kept the house in

4:39 turmoil assaulted Bell and drove off

4:42 Betsy Bell's Suitor even Andrew Jackson

4:46 who came to investigate retreated to

4:48 Nashville after his coach Wheels stopped

4:52 mysteriously and I'm hoping the old

4:55 schoolhouse

4:56 building has a little bit more

4:58 information and over next to the

5:00 building they have some of the old

5:04 businesses in

5:06 town st's Barber

5:10 Shop 1936 to

5:21 1996 that's pretty cool this is a guy

5:21 named Dr Connelly he started his

5:23 practice in

5:25 1891 here and these are some of the

5:28 relics

5:30 of his

5:36 office can't get in the door even though

5:36 the screen door is open this door is

5:39 locked with a Master Lock and this log

5:42 house was relocated here many years ago

5:47 and according to this it is the house of

5:51 John and Lucy Williams Bell John Bell

5:56 senior died December 20th 8 1820 his

6:01 death reported by the spirit which had

6:04 plagued him for some years to be the

6:07 result of a mysterious liquid

6:09 administered by the witch Spirit during

6:12 the last days of his illness around the

6:17 side a pretty

6:20 awesome

6:22 fireplace and back porch as well

6:49 there it's

6:49 locked I should probably be thankful

6:51 that it is because I do not want to know

6:54 what's behind that door oh the mysteries

6:57 of that Bell Witch

7:00 pretty fascinating story though I'm

7:02 inside the old schoolhouse

7:04 now and there is a small

7:08 Museum see if I can find any

7:12 information on the witch it is

7:15 interesting that the yearbooks are

7:17 called The Devil's diary

7:21 that's that's close to a witch a lot of

7:24 different books have been

7:26 written on this subject

7:30 a bunch of photos some CDs describing

7:33 the events check this

7:35 out some false teeth from the

7:39 family

7:41 and a holy bible looks like a paper

7:44 weight Holy Bible and photos of

7:49 John's

7:52 gravestone some sort of restraining

7:54 device

7:56 here that's rather archaic and I'm not

7:59 really sure what you would be

8:01 restraining with that nor do I really

8:04 want to know here some old text written

8:08 by Martha Bell

8:11 1866 and even take a look at this a part

8:15 of the book written by MV Ingram

8:21 1894 about what happened with the witch

8:25 the story has been around for a very

8:28 long time here's a little bit better

8:30 photo of the sign entrance into

8:34 town it's a postcard lots of writings on

8:38 the subject

8:39 matter and some artistic

8:43 Renditions that's kind of

8:46 creepy woman alone in the dark reading

8:49 passages with a candle the local opri

8:52 also shares the name I want you to take

8:55 a look at this

8:56 gentleman he's not afraid of any which I

9:01 assure you some articles and paycheck

9:05 stubs and checks written by John Bell

9:10 and some information on Betsy

9:21 Bell and Granny

9:21 Betsy and a statement of when John

9:25 Bell

9:28 died look at this this

9:30 painting of Betsy

9:38 Bell there's a photo of the cave that is

9:38 closed off

9:40 currently the bell witch

9:43 cave that's creepy one of the old high

9:46 school

9:47 jackets with the devil Satan emblem on

9:51 the front they keep copies of all the

9:54 obituaries of the people in town who

9:57 have passed away

9:59 over the

10:01 years and there's no description on it

10:04 it's just laying there amongst the trash

10:07 and

10:08 boxes but that almost looks like part of

10:11 a

10:12 headstone of some sort and just below

10:15 the photo of the basketball team is a

10:18 gaming stick used to hang up Hogs

10:22 during hog

10:25 killing oh my goodness

10:32 there was no one to answer any questions

10:34 or in the museum itself there were some

10:36 people working in the building I read

10:38 online there was a lady who passed away

10:40 at the age of 82 named nah cely she was

10:44 the curator of that Museum and she died

10:46 in a fire in her home her old timey home

10:49 here in town kind of a mysterious ending

10:53 to someone who knew all the

10:55 information about the Bell Witch what

10:58 separates this and makes it unique from

11:00 other ghost stories is it is said that

11:03 this entity could change forms speak and

11:08 move

11:10 objects

11:12 creepy what would you do if that

11:14 happened to you I was in that garbage

11:16 truck's way I was telling the story and

11:19 it startled me dramatically startled me

11:21 John Bell describes the first Apparition

11:24 to look like a dog with the head of a

11:27 rabbit whoa wait a second I'm not making

11:30 that up he actually did describe it as a

11:33 dog have you seen any dogs out there

11:36 that look like you but have heads of

11:44 rabbits it is said that he shot at it

11:44 but

11:45 missed and that's when it

11:47 began the

11:49 legend of the Bell Witch that was

11:52 incredibly weird as soon as I started

11:53 telling that part of the story two

11:55 random

11:57 dogs walked by

12:00 here comes that garbage I I can't I got

12:02 to get out of here this place is this

12:03 place is bizarre what the heck is this

12:05 garbage truck like chasing me like

12:07 following me or something okay he turned

12:09 off he's over there now for a second I

12:12 was wondering which way he was going get

12:15 it I was wondering which way he was

12:18 going I'll see myself out I'll see

12:19 myself out of town

12:21 sir what do you

12:23 think what's the

12:25 consensus did she real oh you must be

12:29 terrified of her you're running makes

12:33 sense she does not play around that

12:44 majority of the entire day has been like
