The Bell Witch - How a Legend Learned Where to Live

In 1817 a Tennessee farmer shot at a strange animal in his cornfield, and something started knocking on the walls of his house. This episode tells the whole Bell Witch story, then follows the paper trail back to a single 1894 book and asks what a printed version does to a legend. Written down, a story stops changing. Part haunting, part history of how ghost stories get fixed in place...
