Witch
It's an old story, there's a bit of folklore that states she was a witch or so she was accused, they killed her 6 times 5 times she came back not unlike Rasputin. The first time they hung her and buried her only to find she had clawed her way out and was captured in a nearby farm, they quickly tied her to a plank and drowned her in the lake. She was checked three times after they dragged her out and buried her again. Two days later her grave again was missing a corpse, she was found in her old dwelling cursing and spitting out worms, dirt and water. She was brought before the towns people and a stake driven through her heart. Again, she was buried but four days later, the guard in the cemetery had failed to return so the governor and a local priest went to investigate to find a dead guard, already decaying his throat ripped out. She was cornered on the outskirts of the town by an angry mob and she was to be burned at the stake. She was tied to an old scarecrow stump from the cornfield and they burned her. However, only the bottom half of her body would burn as a freak rain storm would put out the flames. Her story had grabbed the attention of a religious fanatic and witch hunter who made his way to see this poor woman. He witnessed the rain and said that god has other plans for her and unlike anyone else. He leaned over and said " woman, why won't you die?" A gurgled voice answered him and cursed the towns people for falsely accusing her. She simply asked to be buried away from her late husband that was in the plot next to the one the villagers kept putting her in. She made one simple request and threat that if she did come back no man nor element would stop her from spilling the blood of all the villagers " tie me down and bury me well away from that man!" They did as she asked and the rest is history.  · |

Re: Witch
This probably isn't the best site to post this. I for one am a huge fan of scary stories, urban legends and old folklore. Provided this isn't a silly creepypasta, I appreciate getting the chance to read this. |

Re: Witch
THIS, would make a great movie! The metal straps indicate this was MORE than just folklore. Somebody had to do that extra work, so there must have been something to it, besides the folklore.

Re: Witch
Um story OK I guess for sitting around a campfire with grade schoolers all hopped up on pepsi and smores? Picture however has me confused? Why would you put that picture with that story? 1 Christian interment (no I didn't say burial) face up arms folded across chest 2 Loving treatment of remains, satin bows, ribbons? across body, burial shroud & cap 3 Remains do not appear to have been buried or were buried very well protected...looks like an intentionally "incorruptible" spice and dry catholic saint interment 500 years later more so than someone chucked in the ground, that or remains stored well protected in a very cold climate allowing them to freeze-dry. |
