8.12 | Ohio Witches and Vampires: The Dark Heart of it all!

***🔥**Youtube Premiere MIDNIGHT TONIGHT! EST* of **Ohio Witches and Vampires: The Dark Heart of It All**! *Come join us in the LiveChat* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UODHJaDbT2g \_\__ In 1996 a curious call came in over the airwaves on Art Bell’s Ghost to Ghost radio program. The caller would go on to claim he was given information that would inadvertently breathe new life into a local legend - the curse of the West Branch Witch. Was a witch ever buried in this cemetery, and if not, could the legend itself have become a lure - manifesting in the dark and wearing a witch’s skin, to stalk the very ones who would seek her out? From goat-legged, hoofed devils in a suburban basement to vampire covens in the Dayton underground, join us tonight, as we hop the cemetery wall, and attempt to dig up the undead truth behind disturbing encounters in our own backyard.
