Witches Grave in Hunt Cemetery near Liberal Hill, Texas
The story of the 'Witches Grave' in the Hunt Cemetery of Liberty Hill, Texas dates back to the 1800's, when it is said that a young black girl (possibly a slave) was accused of witchcraft (and/or possibly horse thievery), and was hung in a tree in or next to a lonely graveyard. Legend has it that she was then buried in the same cemetery, and that her stone was marked with words to the effect of "whoever passes over this grave, shall die as I died." They also say that if you dare to go to the cemetery at night, you will see the girl's body hanging in the tree and hear her cries.
