History of The Haunted Farm

THE LIVELY-TATE BLOOD FEUD

The Blood Feud between the Lively and Tate families has gone on for as long as anyone knew. So long, in fact, that it seems there’s not one soul left alive that can still tell the tale of how it all began. Some legends say it began nearly one hundred years ago.

One day, Missy disappeared into the ‘cursed’ woods near her family’s farm. Locals had often claimed a witch inhabited those woods. Many parents would forbid their children from venturing there because, regardless of any ‘ghost stories,’ the woods were still dangerous. Shortly after that, tragedy after tragedy would befall the Fruitland community. Young men, women, and children would go missing near the Lively Farm, often never to be seen again. While locals knew the Livelys were involved, there was never any proof, and never any bodies. Neighbors began to report seeing a young woman in a long white dress, and the entire Lively Family now had a reputation for being evil, or cursed.
