Super!

Anyone who has an interest in Tennessee's most famous ghost should check out this book. It takes a long and complicated story and breaks the facts down in a clear and easy to read way. I have read several of Mr. Price's books and this is by far the best. We even get an update of "Kate's" activities into the 1990's. Is the Bell Witch still in Adams, Tennessee? I don't know but reading this book has made me want to go over to Robertson County and find out. On the other hand, if she was too tough for Andy Jackson I might just stay here.

A great retelling of this fasinating and mysterious story!

I found this book to be a very interesting page turner. Mr. Price is a great writer who knows how to keep your attention. I have enjoyed every book of his that I read and this one is no diffrent.I live less than 2 hours from the small community of Adams and have been to the locations that Mr. Price writes about. What I really enjoyed was that he not only told the story, but also told modern day stories about things that still go on in Adams, especially around the cave and Red River(both of which are on or near the old Bell farm).The one thing that seperates the Bell Witch from other supernatural stories is that hundreds of people at one time or another witnessed it, even Andrew Jackson himself, and this book tells about these events, too. So if you want a story to read for folklore, history , or a dark night ,get this book. You won't be disapponted.

Fascinating and Frightening Book!

The Infamous Bell Witch of Tennessee is a good, thorough account of the Bell Witch. I liked the fact that the author threw in some relevant history so I could get a better idea of the time frame of the Bell Witch visitations. I highly recommend this book to students of the paranormal.

The Bell Witch of Tennessee

The Bell Witch kept me on the edge of my seat. I could not put the book down, not to mention not being able to sleep at night. I first heard of the Bell Witch while attending college at East Tennessee State University. My Anthropology Prof. was from that area and I very much wanted to visit to Bell Witch Cave. I recommend to anyone who is into the supernatural or the unexplained to read this book. It will have you looking around every corner. Wonder if they'll ever make a movie. It will be much better that the Blair witch, but that' not saying much!

Well done!

The legend of the Bell Witch is one of the most complicated tales in American folklore, but this book manages to give a detailed account that the reader can easily follow! What's more, the author has given us great insight into the personalities of the people involved in the case, making it possible for the reader to piece together the psychological background of the Bell Witch and her victims.This should probably be the *first* book about the Bell Witch that any researcher reads.
