The Burrville Cider Mill has been a staple in Jefferson county since 1802! First as a saw and gristmill then turned into a cider mill in 1940, producing the best cider you can get your hands on! So good infact that the original owners and other spirits just do not want to leave! We got to interview the current owner Cindy Steiner, she shared with us her personal interactions with the ghost of the mill!

Corruption, greed for power, and wealth lead to thousands of women and some men losing their lives. Ridiculous tests, crazy accusations, and torture lead many people to confess just to put an end to the pain. Whenever bad things happened witches were the ones to blame. I mean really why do witches have such a bad wrap? They only eat babies and steal your genitals...Hide yo kids, hide your genitals!
