Bell Witch Cave
Local legends say that the Bell Witch has haunted the area surrounding the caves for hundreds of years. It is said that the witch appears to people in the human form. There are many unexplainable pictures of shadows and other such entities in the cave. Upon entering the cave, it is alleged that one will be overcome by the feeling of being watched. It is further asserted that if one is to take a rock from the cave, they shall be forever be cursed. Many others have also reported voices in restricted areas of the cave that cannot be reached by any human.

I want to go soo bad. It seems really interesting. My teacher said she was there when the house was not demolished and she was scared out of her mind. I wish I could have some kind of experience. And I remember a long time ago I found a newspaper and on one side it had a really old date, and the picture was of bell witch in a dress in her house w/ potions and a pot, as the captioned said.. But I’ve between then and now. I wish I still had it.

hmph… i have been to the bell witch cave nd it doesnt seem scary at all.. i was in the back of the line exiting the cave nd was hit in the head with something.. not hard but hard enough to feel it… we also felt a breeze coming from the opposite end of the entry so tht is unexplained… but whoever wrote this story did not tell the full story.. the bell witch actually saved a kid long ago.. there is a movie on it.. look it up nd watch it if you want to know more about this story..

Considering this legend has been around for awhile, I think it is a must see for.. believers.. which I am. I believe there are things that we are not sure about in this world.. A lot of words to describe these pheonomenons.. I am actually going to see the cave.. on spring break.. I’m excited for this trip

Okay, i used to live in Adams for 5 years! Im 13 and i went to the bell witch cave in August. My mom took my boyfriend and I. So, before we went in, the tour guide told us the story about the bell witch and bell witch cave. We got in, and I had a VERY eerie feeling, so I looked over and I could swear I saw a white rabbit. But, I turned and looked again, it wasnt there. This cave is not a playground, so if you go, i reccomend do not play around with things for your safety. I heard a story about these teenagers, they hid from their group and stayed over night, ended up so they ended up staying in the cave. One boy, had to use the bathroom, so he went. When his girlfriend went looking for him, (he was gone a while) she found him stuffed in a hole, dead. My mom also had an experience. She and her friend went when they were teenagers, and her friend took a rock. They got to the end of the driveway where you come in, and their car broke down. My mom’s friend ran back and told the tour guide she needed to put the rock in the cave. When she came back, my mom tried starting the car. It started. Like a week before i went, my mom, 2 couisins, my friend, my sister, and I went to the cemetery and Old school house near the cave. Now, when we went to the cemetery, my mom was taking pictures. I was in front of the tall grave stone of the Bell family and in the picture, something strange appeared. And i was looking around while everyone was in the car, and wasps started to chase me all the way to the car. That very same thing happened to my grandma. At the Old School house, we heard laughing upstairs in the middle room where the records are. My grandfather heard the same thing when i was 5. I mean, if your looking for terrifying stuff, go to the Cemetery, Old School house, and the Cave! Ive never been to the farm though
I wanna go! If you have any questions, email me at simpleky8@yahoo.com Thanks.

Ive lived in adams my whole life and you grow up hearing the stories. I do believe she is real but the movie they made for it. Some of its true and some of it wasnt. American haunting was terrible. But we have a local historian who wrote a book about it all about three years ago.

I will be visiting Adams Tn for a third time on October 30th. It is really fun. The best thing to do is to see the play before visiting the cave and all makes it very interesting. You can buy the tickets online at http://bellwitchplay.com/
