The Cousins Weird's podcast

In this episode, we dive into the chilling (and slightly unhinged) legend of the Bell Witch—a spirit so petty it slapped teenagers, poisoned a man, and scared off Andrew Jackson. From 1800s hauntings to modern-day mishaps in the cursed Bell Witch Cave, this story has it all… ghosts, gossip, and rocks you absolutely should not pocket.
