Megan’s bringing you a couple of witch stories today—first, the legend of the Witch of Yazoo City, and second, the story of Hellish Nell, a working medium in the 1940s.

Our Tuesday episodes are usually shorter than our Friday episodes, focusing on topics we didn’t think we could do a full episode on, and often sent in by you guys! Thanks for sending us these, Amy and Pamela!
