Description: YESTERDAY'S NEWS__ Classic tales of the most notorius scandals, scoundrels and scourges told from historic newspapers in the golden age of yellow journalism__ The York Witch Trial __ This episode of True Crime Historian gives us a little lesson in the Pennsylvania Dutch Powwow mysticism traditions. Although it sounds like the Native American word for an intertribal gathering of dancing and feasting, the origins of the term in this context are obscure but refer to more European form of healing and the casting of spells-- and hexes. In this story, a simple minded fellow named John Blymyer tries to rid himself and his friends of an evil curse. Yeah. Not gonna end well. -- Music by Dave Sams www.truecrimehistorian.com/1928rehmyer
