One theory posits that water amplifies spiritual energy. Water can have an impact on human behavior and emotion, in both normal and paranormal contexts. This same spiritual amplification makes it easier for ghosts and spirits to travel through liquid than solid objects, or even air. But instead of moving through he liquid by displacing molecules, ghosts may travel through water similar to the way electricity does. Many people believe that ghosts can use water as a conduit to interact with the living world. From lakes and oceans, to swimming pools and hot tubs, there have been countless cases of ghosts communicating with people through water.

Exploring the Link Between Water and Ghosts 

Because water is a medium between the physical and spiritual worlds, it is quite possible that ghosts use water as a conduit for manifestation. The theory suggests that by using the energy found within water, ghosts are able to create an environment where they can interact with the living world. Paranormal television shows and movies often depict water as being a source of ghostly activity.

For example, since ancient times, many cultures have believed that drowning victims become ghostly guardians who protect their surrounding waters from evil forces. Several cultures have practiced the intentional sacrifice of a living being at the construction of bridges. This construction sacrifice is believed to create a perpetual protector.

Listen to an episode about ghosts and bridges:

Do ghosts use water as a conduit for manifestation?

When it comes to ghosts using water as a conduit for manifestation, there are a couple of theories. Here are two of them. One theory suggests that when ghosts come into contact with large bodies of water, such as lakes or oceans, they are able to draw on the energy from those waters and use it to manifest themselves on earth. The other theory proposes that when spirits come into contact with smaller bodies of water like streams or rivers, they are able to draw on their own energy. This allows the ghost to create an environment where they can interact with the living world without drawing too much attention. 

In addition to providing a medium for ghostly manifestations, water also plays an important role when it comes to humidity and temperature levels in an area. When there is an increase in humidity or temperature levels in an area due to high levels of moisture in the air (such as near a river or lake), it can lead to increased paranormal activity. Sightings of apparitions or cold spots may be more common in humid areas. This could be because higher humidity makes it easier for spirits and other supernatural entities to manifest physically on earth. The ghosts are using the water vapor suspended in the air as a conduit.

Are there any famous places that are haunted because of water?

The Bermuda Triangle is perhaps one of the best-known examples of a paranormal phenomenon related to water. This area of ocean between Miami, Bermuda, and Puerto Rico is notorious for its mysterious disappearances. Many planes and hundreds of ships have vanished without a trace there over the years. The disappearances have been attributed to everything from alien abductions to supernatural forces. Some believe that underwater geologic activity—such as powerful methane gas bubbles or unexpected currents—could be responsible for the disappearances in the Bermuda Triangle. And yet, there’s a strong air of paranormal mystery and fear surrounding the unexplained occurrences in the area.

Perhaps because of its vastness, the Earths oceans serve as hiding places for several mythical lands. One of the most famous supernatural places is the Lost City of Atlantis. Thought to be an ancient civilization with inexplicably complex technology, Atlantis purportedly disappeared beneath the sea, and yet still exists and flourishes today. Atlanteans may be normal humans, surviving underwater all this time because of (alien?) technology.

Some say they were chosen by a deity to survive bad times within a protective underwater environment. Perhaps they used their advanced technology to evolve somehow into something that’s no longer quite human. Or perhaps Atlantians were a cross-breed of humans and…insert your favorite paranormal entity here. Does their being not quite human, plus believed in by many yet never quite proven to exist, qualify Atlanteans as cryptids? Or are they a supernatural race that’s not quite corporeal, like elves? Either way, they’re not the only underwater-dwelling paranormal entities.

Water and paranormal entities

The Loch Ness Monster is probably the most famous paranormal entity that involves water in the Western world. One popular theory suggests that Nessie is a prehistoric creature that somehow survived extinction. It’s actually possible for a prehistoric species to survive an extinction event by hiding underwater. Others attribute her to something more otherworldly. And, of course, many claim she’s just a hoax. Most of the theories revolving around Nessie imply she’s an actual physical being, and not a spirit.

There are many more supernatural entities associated with water in Eastern mythology, both corporeal and non-corporeal in nature.

Many of the creatures living deep in the ocean just feel paranormal or alien to us humans. We might associate deep water with the paranormal simply because it’s just so foreign to us land-dwellers. But is there something special about water in general that allows supernatural creatures to flourish?

How does water help spirits manifest?

Static electricity increases when salt or other substances are added to water. This is due to the electrical current generated by ions in the water. The ions may also create an environment conducive to carrying spiritual energy from one place to another. It would thus make sense to assume that salt water is, on average, more haunted than fresh water. But on the other hand, bodies of freshwater tend to be much smaller than the vast saltwater oceans. It’s possible humans experience more freshwater hauntings than saltwater hauntings simply because we have interactions with a higher percentage of bodies of freshwater. There may be many hauntings deep in the ocean we’ve yet to experience.

Scientific studies have shown that bodies of water contain higher concentrations of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) than the surrounding air and land. We’ve covered in the past how ghosts may use EMFs to manifest or communicate with the living. The high EMFs of large bodies of water could explain why so many people report paranormal activity near lakes, rivers and oceans. Many people have reported seeing apparitions rising out of the ocean or lake just before dawn or at dusk – times when EMF levels are at their highest.

Listen to our episode about EMF fields:

These experiences are not limited to natural or large bodies of water. There are also numerous reports of supernatural experiences in bathtubs! Some people claim they have seen entities emerge from bathwater during deep meditation sessions—an experience which further suggests that EMFs play a role in connecting us with the spirit world. 

Do ghosts use water to travel?

It seems clear that water plays an important role in paranormal activity and ghostly manifestations. By understanding how spirits use water as a conduit for interaction with our world, we can better understand how they manifest themselves in our lives and how we can better protect ourselves from unwanted encounters with them. All things considered, it seems likely that paranormal entities may indeed make use of our vast waterways as a way to move freely between different locations across the globe without being detected by humans—if only we could figure out how they do it!

Our guests have had some theories, based on their first-hand experiences with the paranormal having to do with water. Listen to some of these spooky water-related ghost stories to inspire some thoughts on how ghosts and paranormal entities interact with water.

• What Do We Smell Like To Monsters?
• It Came Up The Drain!
• The Slimy Butt Burglar and other Distractible Creatures
• Haunted Waters of the Holston River

After you listen, please comment with your theories! We’d love to hear about your thoughts, and if you have any personal supernatural water stories, please consider telling them on our show! That way we can all have a spooky day.

The post How Ghosts Use Water as a Conduit for Manifestation appeared first on Homespun Haints.

A little over 200 years ago, an entity known as the Bell Witch tormented a family in rural Adams, Tennessee. And, according to the legend, she ultimately killed the family’s father, John Bell. Plus, she may haunt there, still.

Who is the Bell Witch?

The Bell Witch is a supernatural entity that tormented the Bell family from 1817 until John Bell’s death in 1820. The Bells, originally a North Carolina family, had moved to the Red River area in Tennessee in 1804. According to the Bell Witch Legend, the Bells’ lives were uneventful at first. Then, for unexplained reasons, a strange entity began tormenting the family, focusing her efforts on John and his daughter Betsy.

Legend tells us that the Bell Witch’s real name is Kate Batts, a disgruntled neighbor who decided she needed to bother the Bells. The Bells figured out the witch’s identity through a series of conversations they had with the entity. Reports say the Bell Witch made quite a ruckus of sounds, from gulping noises to rattling chains. She also scratched, beat, pricked, and pinched poor Betsy, and physically tormented other members of the family as well.

But what was “Kate” trying to accomplish by haunting the family? And was she really a witch?

The Kate Batts legends

A woman named Catherine Batts actually existed, though there’s little evidence to suggest she had anything against the Bells personally, and may have been Lucy Bell’s niece, according to research conducted by Pat Fitzhugh. Lucy Bell was John’s wife and mother to the Bell children.

One popular explanation for the Bell Witch’s actions? Apparently, Kate Batts did not approve of Betsy’s engagement to neighbor Joshua Gardner. The folklore gives no reason as to why the witch would have a problem with this union, however.

Another story that you might hear is that Kate Batts and John Bell had an affair when the family still lived in North Carolina. After Batts threatened to expose the affair to the community, Bell murdered her by leaving her in the smokehouse to die. He then fled North Carolina with his family and settled in Tennessee. However, also according to Fitzhugh, the real Catherine Batts outlived John Bell by at least 23 years—and there’s no evidence of an affair.

What is interesting, however, is that Kate Batt’s brother-in-law, Benjamin Batts, brought a dispute against John Bell to the local Red River Baptist Church. A dispute that ultimately led to Bell’s excommunication from the church. Now that’s a tasty nugget of history isn’t it?

Why is the Bell Witch called a witch?

When you hear of the Bell Witch’s actions, she seems to act more like a ghost or spirit than a witch, especially when you learn that her presence is still felt from time to time on the old Bell farm. In order to understand why, it’s important to remember that words like “ghost,” “spirit,” “witch,” and “haint” are often used interchangeably in these parts. Any supernatural entity, living or dead, could receive the witch moniker.

So, is the Bell Witch real?

As confusing as the Bell Witch legend can be, one interesting fact remains: John Bell died under mysterious circumstances.

While folklore tells us the witch poisoned him, a professor at Austin Peay State University has another theory. Dr. Meagan Mann, Assistant Professor of Chemistry, believes Bell may have ingested something quite natural, causing his death. Dr. Mann read the (few) contemporary accounts of what happened to John Bell and analyzed the poisons available in early 19th-century Tennessee. She believes it’s possible someone poisoned Bell with arsenic.

And that “someone” need not be a supernatural entity. In fact, arsenic poisoning at the time was a pretty big problem in the U.S. And, administering arsenic in small doses could account for some of the other things Bell experienced (such as his face twitching or his tongue feeling weird).

You can check out the full interview with Dr. Mann here.

What do you think?

Did a supernatural entity torment the Bell farm in the early 1800s? Is she still hanging around the property? Or is this a legend brought about by chemically-induced hallucinations and the ability for tales to stretch and grow over time? If not the alleged witch, who might’ve been slowly poisoning Bell? We’d love to know your thoughts! Drop us a message and let us know if you believe the Bell Witch is real.

Are you ready to stay at a real haunted house? Well now is your chance, unless you’re deterred by what co-host of the Travel Channel’s “Portals To Hell” Jack Osbourne said about the Haunted Hill House in Mineral Wells, Texas: “it’s probably the one place that I would say, if there was a demonic presence it would be [there].”

The Real Haunted Hill House

You’ve probably heard of a haunted Hill House popping up in various films and literature. The original inspiration for these fictional haunted Hill Houses comes from the novel The Haunting of Hill House, written in 1959 by the great literary horror novelist Shirley Jackson. This novel inspired the 1963 film The Haunting starring Julie Harris, and a more fantasized 1999 adaptation of The Haunting starring Lili Taylor and Liam Neeson. And, of course, the Netflix series, “The Haunting of Hill House.” The Netflix series really doesn’t have much to do with the original novel at all (other than character names) but you should still watch anyway.

But Shirley Jackson’s Hill House, which inspired all of these offshoots, was not inspired by the haunted Hill House in Texas. In fact, according to Jackson’s biographer Ruth Franklin, Jackson drew inspiration for her fictional Hill House from the Winchester Mystery House. So, while both the fictional Hill House and real Hill House are obscenely haunted, they’re completely different places.

Haunted Hill House History

125 feet away from the (also haunted) Baker Hotel sits the looming Haunted Hill House. This house is a Victorian mansion that takes up 3800 square feet. The famous East Mountain, where Native Americans and Outlaws battled over a century ago secludes the mansion from the main thoroughfare. The house was built during the Civil War as an A-frame home and belonged to the First Founding Families of Mineral Wells. During the late 1800s to the early 1900s the home was used as a makeshift hospital and then later became a retreat for illegal activity. It once hosted prostitutes, bootleggers, and gambling for those that wanted to be discreet and imbibe these illicit activities in secret.

How did this house become so famous for having the most paranormal activity?

Some say, if you die on the property, you never leave.

During the years that the house was shrouded in illegal and illicit activity, several deaths happened there. Some say that the spirits wander the halls as if they’re still living there. Investigators have detected nine different spirits haunting the home. The most dominant spirit is one of a little boy that inhabits the upstairs area. The little boy may have been a disfigured child born to one of the working girls. He only made it to the age of six. One of the owners who fell into a well also haunts the property. Also, all those that died on the property due to the flu outbreak. 

Anyone that visits or even dares to stay overnight could be in for the fright of their lifetime due to high levels of reported paranormal activity. The home has 18 areas where you can investigate, 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, and a kitchen. People that do overnight investigations have access to the entire property.  

At the time of this writing, the home is owned by Edward and Katherine Estes. Katherine offers to anoint her departing guests with Holy Water or another cleansing item to make sure they stay protected.

Ready to stay the night or take a tour? 

Beware of the haunted experiences some visitors to Hill House have had:

• Nausea
• Headache
• Immediately feeling ill upon entering the grounds
• A malevolent spirit visitation the next day after visiting the house
• Groups have had balls moved by the little boy spirit
• Several have had things thrown at them
• Over 70 people have been scratched and 2 have been bitten
• Seen green orbs

If you’re still feeling brave, visit their website to book an overnight investigation!

The house is located at 501 NE 1st St, Mineral Wells, TX 76067, just over an hour West of Fort Worth, Texas.

Haunted Hill House Trivia

• Previously visited by members of Ghost Adventures, Haunted Collector, Deep South Paranormal, Taps, Paranormal Files, Portals To Hell, Strangetown, and Christopher Saint Booth.
• Katherine said the house ranks #1 as the most haunted house in Texas (and third most haunted in the nation) by Good Day America. 
• Big Seven Travel listed it as the spookiest home in the state by
• Caves known as the East Mountain are located on the property.
• You can have your wedding at the house, but beware you may have some non-human guests!

Mineral Wells, TX

The town of Mineral Wells, TX, was first populated by settlers around the turn of the 19th century due to the discovery of purportedly miraculous curative mineral water. Remind you of any other famously haunted locations we’ve written about? The mineral water was dubbed “Crazy Water” because of a local legend of a woman recovering from some ridiculous 19th century mental disorder after drinking it. By 1900, Mineral Wells was the spa resort destination in the Southern US, drawing over 150,000 visitors that year alone. The tiny town boasted 46 hotels and boarding houses by 1909, and most visitors were only there because of the water. Visitors indulged in the four bathing houses, chugged at the seven water pavilions, or booked more intensive treatment at the two local sanitariums.

But the most hilariously cruel tourist attraction was the “Fat Man’s Reducer”. Tourists would gorge themselves on miraculous, healing, unfiltered, un-sanitized mineral water (a known laxative). Then they would take attempt to climb the “Fat Man’s Reducer”: a thousand-foot staircase built on the side of East Mountain. According to legendary66.com, the locals amused themselves by watching the tourists get halfway up, and then realize that they had to use the bathroom quite urgently, due to the water hitting their unprepared system. Hill House, at the foot of East Mountain, might have been a prime location to view these follies.

Tragic Women of the Sorrel Weed House

The most common stories center around Francis Sorrel’s wife Matilda. According to legend, the tragedies began when Matilda discovered her husband having an affair with one of their maids, Molly. The heart-broken Matilda subsequently jumped to her death from the balcony. A few weeks later, Molly’s body was found hanging in her room, also an apparent suicide. Rumors began to circulate that Matilda’s ghost led Molly to commit suicide.

Both Becky and our podcast guest Enocha Edenfield have found evidence that the most commonly told stories about the Sorrel Weed house are not exactly what actually happened. For example, Matilda did likely commit suicide, but in the house next door. But that doesn’t mean the place doesn’t have plenty of spirits.

Ghosts of the Sorrel Weed House

Do the ghosts of Matilda and Molly really haunt the Sorrel Weed House? There are definitely some spooky things afoot within it’s walls.

In an article in Country Living titled “I Captured Something Disturbing on Camera at Savannah’s Sorrel Weed House” David Duran writes, “a series of photographs show the reflection of someone who wasn’t in the room with us suddenly appearing in the mirror.”

The home has a history of images capturing dark shadows and orbs. Investigators have also captured recordings of screams and creepy voices. A common occurrence is that people have a strange sensation of nausea and feeling choked in the basement. People who consider themselves “sensitive” or psychic have described feeling panicked in the house for no reason. Also, people’s cell phone and camera batteries drain by the end of the tour. Even though participants fully charged their devices ahead of time.

Others claim to hear the sounds of people talking in the living room. However, when someone approaches, the sounds abruptly stop. Even though no investigators have discovered the exact origins of these sounds, many believe they are the echoes of social events held in the home’s bygone years.

Is the Sorrel Weed House really haunted, and by whom?

When Becky visited, she didn’t get spooked…until she entered the basement. As in many of the houses in the region of the day, the basement would have been slave quarters. Enslaved people toiled in incredible misery in the dark, hot, foul basement for years, with no end in sight. Becky could feel empathetic echoes of the oppression and hopelessness that must have been felt by so many people in those rooms.

Becky also felt a presence behind her on the basement stairs. It was so powerful a feeling, that she turned around to usher that person into the room…only to realize she was the last in line. After Becky’s personal paranormal experiences in the house, she’s convinced that the house is indeed haunted. Perhaps by the famous upstairs dwellers. But certainly more so by the cellar dwellers, whose names history has forgotten.

Sorrel-Weed House Trivia:

• The opening scene of the 1994 film Forrest Gump was filmed from the rooftop of The Sorrel Weed House and is a popular tourist stop.
• The Atlantic Paranormal Society (TAPS) investigated the home during a Halloween Special episode of Ghost Hunters.
• HGTV’s If Walls Could Talk featured the home.
• The Ghost Adventures crew has investigated the home. 
• The Travel Channel featured the house on its show “The Most Terrifying Places in America”​
• USA Today listed the Sorrel–Weed House as a top 10 Halloween travel destination.
• Condé Nast wrote that Savannah is one of the eight best cities to visit at Halloween, citing the Sorrel–Weed House’s reputation for paranormal activity as “a great way to spend Halloween.”

The Thornewood Castle, in Lakewood, Washington, boasts of a rich history and haunting past. Chester Thorne, one of the founders of the Port of Tacoma and Mount Rainier Park, spared no cost to make the mansion spectacular for his bride Anna. Even more impressively, Thorne dismantled a 400-year-old manor in England and shipped it, piece by piece, to the United States, so that all the bricks would be a part of the Castle. The mansion has 54 rooms, 28 bedrooms, and 22 bathrooms! In 1911, after four years of construction, Thornewood finally completed the 20,000 square foot castle. This testament to Thorne’s love for his wife gave the castle its sweet nickname: the house that love built.

The haunting of Thornewood Castle

So if the castle was built out of love, why is it so spooky? What makes this tudor-gothic mansion eerie? Several ghosts call it home. People believe these spirits stay at the mansion because of either their love for it, or the tragedies that have occurred there.

Ghosts of Thornewood Castle

Chester Thorne himself is the most active spirit there. He reportedly has made several appearances over the years. He usually shows up in the room that used to be his den, where he likes to unscrew the lightbulbs. No one really knows why; perhaps he feels nostalgic for the soft candlelight of 1911?

People have also reported seeing Anna, Chester’s wife, sitting in the window seat of her room that overlooks the garden. Today, Anna’s bedroom is a bridal suite which still has the original mirror from her time. Guests claim to see Anna’s spectral reflection in her mirror.

Guests have also claimed to see a child standing alone by the lake, only to find that when they rushed down to help, no one was there. Legend has it that the grandchild of a former owner drowned in the lake.

From Thornewood Castle’s current owners

Wayne and Deanna Robinson purchased the mansion in 2000. The couple claims that the most common encounter they’ve had is the phantom party they would see in the great hall. One night while Deanna was reading, the room suddenly lit up like a cocktail party was taking place. According to the website Weird US, “she heard people walking and dancing across the floor, the clinking of glasses and the mutter of conversation. It sounded like 100 invisible people had suddenly appeared.”

On another occasion, “Deanna has seen what she described as a vortex in the Great Hall. It appeared one night on the grand staircase. This stairway, like most fixtures at Thornewood Castle, is several hundred years old. She saw several spirits come out of the vortex, but having previously had a near death experience of her own, she did not investigate for fear of being pulled to the other side.”

Thornewood Castle Trivia

• The mansion has hosted many garden and dinner parties for famous guests, including Presidents Theodore Roosevelt and William Howard Taft.
• The Stephen King film Rose Red used Thornewood castle as a set. So did its prequel, The Diary of Ellen Rimbauer.
• An obscure silent film, The Eyes of the Totem, funded by Chester Thorne, shot on the castle grounds, and released in 1927, was then promptly lost for 80 years. Archivists rediscovered the film in 2015 in the archives of the Museum of Modern Art in NYC.
• The manor has a collection of rare artwork which is hand-painted onto the glass. You can find this glass mounted in windows throughout the estate.

Visiting the Mansion

At the time of this writing, there is no formal Thornewood Castle ghost tour (or any tour) that you can take as a member of the general public. Staying at or attending an event at the inn are the ONLY ways to explore it. From their website: “We regret that time demands and our neighborhood setting do not permit us to show the Castle on a walk-up basis. The Castle is a private residence located in a gated neighborhood. It can be seen when staying as a registered overnight guest or attending a private event.”

However, the one exception to this rule might be to book a professional photo shoot there. Call Thornewood directly for details.

Accessibility at Thornewood Castle

The castle has no elevator. ALL of the rooms listed on their website are on the 2nd or 3rd floors. Remember in the States, the first floor IS the ground floor, so if you book a 2nd floor room, that’s just 1 flight of stairs to climb, not 2. 2nd floor rooms include the Grandview Suite, Presidential Suite, Anna’s Suite, Chester’s Suite, and The Blue Room. The other guest rooms all appear to be on the 3rd floor.

Some of the rooms do not have a bathroom en-suite, but may have private bathrooms that you’d need to exit your room and go down the hall to use. The house was built on its current site over 100 years ago, but is a replica (of sorts) of a 400 year old house, so expect the less-accessible features common to that time period.

But there may be another option: there are 2 (more modern) guest apartments on the property, one for 2 occupants, and 1 for up to 6 occupants, available by the week or by the month. Apartment guests get a key to the castle and are permitted to roam everywhere the guests staying inside the inn can. Be sure to call and specifically ask, as it’s unclear from their website just how accessible the apartments are.

Sweet dreams

Whether you believe these ghostly sightings took place or not, would you spend the night in Thornewood Castle? It’s on the National Register of Historic Places and serves as a country inn that has been restored. Online reservations are discounted by 15%. Again, at this time, ONLY guests of the Inn can roam the grounds; boat, swim, and fish in the lake; and have tea in the sunken English garden.
