The Bell Witch cryptic entrance is a mysterious phenomenon that is said to have occurred in the early 19th century in Tennessee. According to legend, the haunting began when a farmer named John Bell encountered a strange creature while walking in the woods near his home. The creature, which appeared as a large dog with the head of a rabbit, seemed to have no physical form and was able to move through solid objects with ease. Shortly after the encounter, the Bell family began experiencing a series of strange events in their home. They would hear knocking and scratching sounds coming from the walls, furniture would move on its own, and strange voices would whisper in their ears. Initially, they dismissed these occurrences as mere tricks of the mind, but as time went on, the activity only intensified.
Wizard knows all about the pink frog in Fugue Forest. It's actually Witch! The Witch had tried to cast a spell to restore the divine tree. Even after Wizard had warned her not to do it, she went ahead and had some unfortunate results. She's stuck as a little froggie for the moment. Wizard can restore her but he needs a few ingredients; a Hibiscus flower, Perfect Butter, and Good Cornmeal. The Hibiscus can only be found on the island to the south, which requires a boat to travel there.
A tiny blurb about the legend appeared in an 1886 vanity history book Goodspeed s History of Tennessee - Robertson County , but proponents of the fabrication attribute it to Ingram as well. Although finding the article would prove that the story existed before Ingram s book was published, researchers been un able to find an archived copy of the article ; its existence, absent any physical evidence, has amount ed to hearsay from Ingram.
Initially, they dismissed these occurrences as mere tricks of the mind, but as time went on, the activity only intensified. The most famous aspect of the Bell Witch haunting was the voice of the entity itself. The spirit would communicate with the Bells and other members of the community through a series of knocks and raspy whispers.
Ben's Blue Bell
Upstairs in the windmill on Horn Ranch you'll find another pedestal, but the green bell is missing. Where is Daren? Finn thinks maybe Witch might have an idea on what to do next. She lives in Fugue Forest.
If you go to the forest entrance you'll discover that the gate is locked! Go back to Horn Ranch and talk to Hanna. She doesn't know why the gate would be locked when it didn't use to be locked, so she sends her husband out to investigate.
Return back to the forest entrance and you'll find Cain looking at the lock. He doesn't have the key, but he believes Dale has it.
Walk to the carpentry shop in the Garmon Mine District and talk to Dale. He did indeed lock the door to the forest and hands over the key.
Use the key on the door in order to pass through the gate. You also need to have your Axe in your Rucksack before you can enter the forest.
The path through the forest is a series of randomly generated screens. There's about 12 random tree areas you have to pass through. As you walk into each area, search for a small path that leads away from where you are. Sometimes the path can be hidden behind a tree on the north-side of the screen. There are no dead ends, so keep searching if you don't see the path right away.
At the end of the forest you'll find the Witch's house. When you go inside there's nothing there but a pink frog! Maybe Wizard knows something about this, so head back to Harmonica Town.

Go to the Fishery and talk to Ozzie. Boats have not arrived in Harmonica Town for quite some time, due to the fact that the Lighthouse is broken. The water aqueduct that flows through town is needed to run the light on top of the lighthouse. Ozzie suggest that you go talk to Paolo, who is inside the Lighthouse.
Paolo will tell you about the Lighthouse. He will also give you the key to the aqueduct gate that keeps the Watery Cave protected. There is also a strange, cryptic map behind him on the wall:
The aqueduct gate is on the level between Wizard's house and Choral Clinic. Use the key on the gate to open it. Inside the Watery Cave you'll find the Blue Bell on its pedestal!
Ask Ben to ring his bell, but no matter how much he pleads, the bell will not ring. Has it forgotten how to sound? Finn thinks the Goddess might know something.
Back at the pond, Goddess says someone who knows about the Watery Cave might be the person who can help with the Blue Bell. Head back to Paolo, who mentions that he heard from his dad that the town itself can help tune the bell. Paolo will point out the strange map on the wall that you saw before.
Oh, but something is missing. Paolo does some more drawing and now the map makes more sense:
It looks like the two of you will use the town's aqueduct system to help tune the bell. You just have to collect a few pieces:
It would often reveal information that only the person it was speaking to would know, leading many to believe that it had some sort of supernatural knowledge. As the haunting continued, the Bell family became increasingly desperate for answers. They sought the help of local authorities, who witnessed the strange events for themselves. Eventually, word of the haunting spread, and visitors from all over came to witness the phenomenon firsthand. After several years, the Bell Witch finally revealed its identity as Kate Batts, a neighbor of the Bell family who had accused John Bell of stealing from her. According to the legend, Batts had placed a curse on the Bell family, resulting in the haunting. She claimed that she would haunt the family for the rest of their lives, and indeed, the disturbances continued even after John Bell's death. The Bell Witch haunting is still remembered today as one of the most famous cases of paranormal activity in American history. While there is no concrete evidence to support the existence of the entity, the story has become a part of local folklore and continues to intrigue people around the world. The cryptic entrance of the Bell Witch into the lives of the Bell family remains an unsolved mystery, leaving us to wonder about the true nature of the haunting..
