Pure concerns the adventures of Shay (Jahkara Smith), who along with her half-sister Jo (McKaley Miller) and father Kyle (Jim Klock), head out to one hell of a fucked-up retreat where women are dressed in white, lectured repeatedly on purity, and promise to their fathers that they won’t give up that cherry cobbler to any ol’ walkin’ hard on that comes their way until after marriage. It’s all rather Draconian and Patriarchal, and the extreme methods employed by the smarmy, yet charismatic Pastor Seth (Scott Porter) (including an outre box which he uses to punish dissenters) don’t help matters.

Tennessee Wraith Chasers Investigate The Bell Witch On Friday’s “Haunted Live” Season Finale

Tune in this Friday (11/16) for the season finale of Travel Channel’s “Haunted Live” featuring The Tennessee Wraith Chasers‘ (interview) investigation of one of the most legendary paranormal legends in the US, the Bell Witch case, the only haunted house to ever be investigated by a state government and deemed true. The legend goes that the family of a local farmer named John Bell was plagued by a mysterious and violent spirit for nearly four years. The spirit identified itself as the “witch” of Kate Batts, a neighbor of the Bell’s, with whom John had experienced bad business dealings over some purchased slaves.
