About this episode
Story One – Our Lady of Fatima
In the Autumn of 1917, as the brutality and savagery of the First World War threatened to finally overwhelm Portugal’s borders, seventy thousand people gathered near a rural township to witness an appearance by the Virgin Mary. What exactly happened during The Fatima Event?
Story Two – The Legend of the Bell Witch
Whether tales of cryptids or ghostly apparitions, every community has its own folklore. Here, we pay a visit to a small town in Tennessee, which was plagued by a spirit so vengeful that it was the first in US history to receive blame for an actual recorded death, the legendary Bell Witch.
