Strange Saturday Witch Dance



Strange Saturday Witch Dance

In Mississippi there is an area along the Natchez Trace known as Witch Dance. Why? Well, this is still a mystery, and the area is reputedly one of the state’s most haunted places. For a detailed account of this legend see this site: https://www.legendsofamerica.com/ms-witchdance/

Back in the day, it is said that witches would gather here to perform their rituals, and dance was involved. The story goes that wherever the witch’s feet came in contact with the ground all vegetation would wither and die, never to grow again.

Today these barren spots can still be seen and nothing grows there. If you’d like to visit the site it is on the Natchez Trace Parkway at milepost 233.2. 

From the Big Blue Book of Ballet Secrets
Strange Secret #195:
“There is an area in Mississippi linked to the Witch Dance.”

Quote of the Day:
“Solitude is the soil in which genius is planted, creativity grows, and legends bloom; faith in oneself is the rain that cultivates a hero to endure the storm, and bare the genesis of a new world, a new forest.”
― Mike Norton, White Mountain
