The Mark of the Bell Witch movie trailer HD - December 20th marks the 200 year anniversary of one of the most infamous events in American history; the death of Tenneesean, John Bell, at the hands of the Bell Witch.
To mark the occasion, indie production company, Small Town Monsters, and director Seth Breedlove (The Mothman Legacy) plan to release their latest film, The Mark of the Bell Witch.
Described as a dramatized retelling of the entire, sordid tale of the merciless spirit who stalked the Bell Family from 1817-1821, the new documentary looks to terrify viewers some time later this year or early next.
The Mark of the Bell Witch is the first such documentary of the famed piece of Appalachian folklore ever attempted.
The story of the Bell Family who encountered mysterious sounds in their home which eventually became a full-blown apparition who terrorized them for nearly 5 years, is still taught in Tennessee schools today.
Considered to be one of the only known cases of murder committed by a โghostโ in American history, the story of John Bellโs poisoning at the hands of the witch, has been the subject of numerous television shows, books, songs, and even a mid-2000s film.
However, previous film and televised interpretations of the events left large chunks of the real story out, or simply changed the events to suit the needs of the creators.
In the case of the new film there will be a historically minded approach to the telling of the case, and also a dive into how the haunting has affected the culture of the community of Adams, Tennessee.
The new trailer shows of a moody, black and white approach to the recreations, while the documentary segments look to introduce viewers to Adams, and the surrounding area.
The new trailer is accompanied by two posters created by Sam Shearon and Adrienne Breedlove.
The Mark of the Bell Witch is directed by Seth Breedlove and produced by Adrienne Breedlove.
Narration is covered by indie darling, Lauren Ashley Carter, with Zac Palmisano in the role of director of photography.
Santino Vitale and SRV Films supplied VFX and the film features an original score by Brandon Dalo.
