The Fox Sisters - Appalachian Spooky Hour

What this episode covers

The Fox sisters began their time as famous mediums by hearing simple knocking sounds in their childhood bedroom.; supposed signs of an intelligent haunting by an entity they could communicate with. From there, they grew to become unintentional leaders of the Spiritualism movement. Then, years later, they confessed that it was nothing more than a hoax. Or was it? Let's find out as we dive into the strange world of the Fox sisters, and how they founded a belief system that still has roots today.
