The Bell Witch was around long before the Blair Witch was fabricated for scares. In May 2006, one of the greatest ghost stories will become the next big screen horror sensation. In1818, a supernatural force haunted the Bell family of Red River, Tennessee and eventually caused the death of one its members. A local schoolteacher, Richard Powell, recorded these chilling events for his daughter, but the manuscript disappeared. Then in 1998, novelist Brent Monahan discovers the long-missing manuscript andafter verifying its legitimacytranslates it into a book, An American Haunting: The Bell Witch, now widely considered the greatest ghost story ever written. In May 2006, this stunning blend of historical events and Monahans prose will hit theaters in a major motion picture event that will thrill audiences everywhere.
