In this episode we go back to the 1800;s to meet two Missouri witches. First we meet the Witch of Taskee who lived in Taskee Station Missouri and astounded those who saw her with her clairvoyance, that came when she was possessed by a spirit that called itself Little Joe. Josie Forbes was reported far and wide for her abilities, even using them to solve crimes! Then we head back to the turn of the 19th Century and meet the Wild Witch of Victoria Missouri in one Prudence Bevins, a part Cherokee woman who seemed to be able to curse the locals and when confronted about being a witch would merely laugh. She was called Queen Bevers and her power was legendary, only occasionally thwarted by the country magic of a local witch charmer. We cover their histories and the folk tales that inevitably rose up surrounding these two strange figures from Missouri history in this special episode of the Family Plot Podcast!
