'Witch Bottle' Discovered Under Virginia Highway | WTVR CBS 6 | January 23, 2020

Left by one of the tens of thousands of immigrants who were given rifles and sent to kill Americans in the Southern States?

To make a proper one, it had to be filled with not only nails, needles, razors and pins, but urine and blood.

Hope they had gloves on.

It may have dispelled witch’s spells but it didn’t stop eminent domain! :)

A glass jug found under the median of Interstate 64 in York County is believed to be a "witch bottle" left by Union soldiers during the Civil War, according to researchers.

But why did the Union soldiers bury it underneath the median of the interstate? Why not directly in the middle of the highway, where it would have been better protected by the pavement?

Which bottle?

This is practically “current events” compared to your usual postings, isn’t it? I really enjoy and gain a lot of information from your threads. Thanks.

Was it Hazel’s Witch Bottle?

Sam and Dean could tell you.

I’m seeing the plot of a direct-to-Netflix/Hulu movie in the making here........there are/were all sorts of legends, myths, ghost sightings, hauntings, and rumored cryptozoological weirdness from that region of the country back in the 18th and 19th Centuries. Haunted tunnels, apparitions, all that goosebumpy stuff we’d hear about as kids up there. Always made for good campfire stories right before you’d hit the sleeping bag for the night, and then some camp assistant or someone would run around in the woods an hour later, rattling tree branches, throwing pebbles, and scaring the general pizz out of everyone. LOL Fun times.
