The Witch of Woodplumpton: The True & Terrible Tale of Mag Shelton and the Hag’s Curse | Documentary
In 1705, an elderly woman called Mag Shelton was found crushed between a barrel and the wall of her cottage. Long feared as a witch who, through dark magic, had sold her soul to the devil, her neighbours in the village of Woodplumpton, England buried her underneath a large boulder. It was hoped that such would stop her from rising from her grave. After all, there were many strange and creepy rumours about her paranormal powers. An exorcism was even allegedly performed at her gravesite to stop her from haunting the area and put an end to her devilry. Even so, her legacy lived on, and indeed grew, with Meg Shelton today being remembered as the Witch of Woodplumpton, the Hag of the Fylde.
