Witchy Woman
In 1970, a family that lived in a small rural town had a cute little farm that was right by a lake and surrounded by woods, they had a garden and a lot of farm animals. It's said that the mother was a claimed Christian, but the family had their doubts. The father was barely around due long work hours and was often away on business trips and mother stayed home with her two girls which was rough because she was home with the kids which was hard her with the father gone all the time. The family had two daughters at the time and were home for summer vacation and often would play tag or hide in seek in the woods or they be swimming in the lake. One day the mom decides to go shopping in town and asks the neighbor to watch her kids until she gets back, she gets in her car and drives to the local general store where they do their shopping. The neighbor watched the kids play and the mother drove off into town. She always shopped at the local general store where they sometimes would get books in, she grabbed what she needed for dinner and some drew her to the book section, she sorted through the books and found a book of witchcraft; now her being a supposed Christian she shouldn't have even wanted this book or go anywhere near or even think of buying it because it was considered bad juju, but something made her do it anyway, now before buying this book she had claimed to hear voices and whispers that told her to buy the book, she bought the book along with her groceries and paid for it and left. While driving the road she was on was twisty, and curvy and as she driving something big and scary came from out the woods and jumped in front of her car causing her crash and hit a tree. Now the mother claimed to see some creature that was half jack rabbit and half dog and it had cloven hooves and walked on it's hind legs, now seeing this creature scared the living hell out of her and she knew seeing what she saw was going to the start of something evil and it was only going to get worse and she knew it was all because of the book. She got out the car and checked the damage and it was too bad, she got back into the car and never spoke of what she saw, so she chose to forget about what happened and just to move on. She drove home and when she got there she thanked the neighbor and hugged her girls tightly, then she grabbed the groceries and took them into the house and put them away, then she took the book and hid upstairs. Later on, after her kids were bed she was downstairs knitting and listening to the radio when an evil voice came through the radio telling her to use the book. Totally freaked out she turns off the radio hoping it would help take away the voices, but it only grew worse. The voices got louder the atmosphere in the house changed it began affecting the kids moods causing to them to yell and fight. After days of listening to the voices the mother gave in and she grew weak in her faith causing the demons to attack and take over her mind and soul. She felt funny and weird and yet somehow powerful, she fell under the demons' oppression. But nothing would prepare them for what was about to happened next. The next night after the girls went to bed the mother was in the basement doing laundry quietly thinking to herself and she began hearing voices telling her to use the book, make a circle, and sacrifice a chicken. The mother obeyed the voices, she had a blank look on her face, and she walked like she was in a trance she went upstairs grabbed the book. Just then a huge thunderstorm rolled in as if from out of nowhere, there were loud claps of thunder, flashes of lightening, an rain driving hard into the ground; the mother held the book tightly to her chest and grabbed a butcher knife then made her way to the chicken coop and grabbed a chicken afterwards proceeded to the woods, made a pentagram out of sticks and placed candles around it lighting each on after, then made a made a fire and lit, she opened a book and breeze came from out of nowhere and opened to the spell in which she needed. She began read the spell and chanted at the end of the spell and took the chicken placed on a rock and chopped the chicken's head off, and poured the blood into the fire and threw the chicken into the fire and repeated these words, "oh mighty Dark Lord, I present to you this sacrifice to you, cleanse me of any sins I may have committed, bless me and family." Now after throwing the chicken into the fire, my mother claimed to see the devil himself come out of the fire, he was tall, and large, and scary looking, after coming out her trance she was there in front of her, she screamed so bloody loud but over the thunder sadly no one could hear her. She ran though the woods and as this is happening things in the house was getting worse, now one of the daughters have seen a demon face in their room, and the other on the verge of being possessed. The girls are yelling and screaming for their mother but she's nowhere to be found. The noises in the house was getting worse there was knocking, footsteps, voices, and loud banging. The demons in the house were tormenting the girls, now they made a run for their mother's room and locked the door and hid. The demons are pounding and shaking the door so fiercely the house shook. Meanwhile outside the mother is being chased by the devil and she is screaming, and crying, and praying to God for forgiveness for what she had done, she get's to the house and opens the door and while the mother isn't looking the devil morphed himself into mist and slipped past the mother, thinking she's safe and left the devil outside she slams the door and locks it. She hears her kids yelling from upstairs and goes into panic and goes to run but something grabs her ankle and pulls her back downstairs, she kicks but the grip is too strong, she pulls away and runs upstairs to her girls but she runs into an invisible brick wall, she bounces back and hits the floor, she yells out, "I cast you in the name of Jesus Christ" but it only angers the demons come up on her so fast they pin her the wall and begin to choke her, but she breaks free she tries to cast the demons out again this time they left. she runs to the door, yelling "it's mommy it's safe to come out, open the door," the girls obey and unlock the door and ran into the mother's arms. It was the end of a horrible night and after calming down two terrified kids, she kisses them goodnight and shuts the door. After a rough night, the mom was getting ready for bed when the devil appeared to her and said," I own your soul, you're mine now.". Now the story ends where the mother claims to be a Christian, she supposedly reads the bible, and prays, she went to church and claimed to be baptized but only the family knew the truth, once a witch always a witch.
