The Frozen Curse of Moll Dyer: Maryland's Witch Who Wouldn't Be ForgottenA woman dies alone in the freezing woods of colonial Maryland after her neighbors burn her out of her home. Over 300 years later, people still leave offerings at the rock where her body was found, afraid to touch it. This is the story of Moll Dyer, a real indentured servant whose tragic death sparked one of America's most persistent legends. We're talking mob violence fueled by disease panic, a curse that allegedly still works, and a 875-pound rock that the town keeps under protective glass. Plus, how this whole thing influenced The Blair Witch Project. Because nothing says justice quite like your story becoming a horror movie inspiration and getting your own day proclaimed by the mayor. Let's talk about what happens when fear, poverty, and a really bad flu season collide in 1698.#MollDyer #TrueCrimeHistory #MarylandHistory #ColonialAmerica #WitchTrials #BlairWitchProject #LeonardtownDiscount codes from show sponsors.
