Hey guys another beautiful day with another great blog today we are going to talk about where we can find the demonic chair it is usually found in cemeteries so let us get started
1)Devil’s chair -
Lake Helen- Cassadaga Cemetery, Cassadaga, Florida This cemetery serves the local area, including the Cassadaga Spiritualist Camp. You can imagine how even more tempting that makes this cemetery. This devil’s chair is actually a bench and made of bricks. Each Halloween, guards are set up to deter daredevils, so to speak, from bothering the chair and grave
2)Witch’s chair - Brookside Cemetery, Tecumseh, Michigan
Near the back of the cemetery, you’ll find the Stacy family plot where there’s a chair made of granite. The witch in question is Loanna Stacy, one of the children who grew up to be considered the “town spinster” and blamed for anything unpleasant that happened in the town. According to John Robinson from 99.1 WFMK, if you sit in this witch’s chair, “you will die shortly afterward.”
3)Witch’s chair - Southside Cemetery, Pontiac, Illinois
This cemetery doesn’t just have a witch’s chair, it has The Goblin Tree (which has its own legend), and coffins that have washed away in the river next to it!
One legend says the chair marks the grave of a witch who was hanged for murdering her own infant. “If you stand on her grave at midnight you can hear her baby crying,” says J.L. Thurston of Literate Ape. “Another legend states that ‘if you sit on the gravestone and recite the epitaph, you’ll die before your eighteenth birthday.’”
Some people will share their experiences on forums where ghost hunters and those interested in phenomena such as these. On Ghostsandstories.com, someone wrote the legend which says that you’ll hear the witch scream if you rub the arms of the chair after you sit down. When he and his friends legend tripped on Halloween night in 1975, he didn’t even finish reciting the words when the back of the chair broke off. The next day, they went back… and “the chair was in perfect unbroken condition.”
4)Devil’s haunted chair - Greenwood Cemetery, Decatur, Illinois
This chair can be good or bad, depending on which legend you believe. Says Joy Neighbors of A Grave Interest, “when someone sits on the chair, they will incur bad luck, or die within a year.
Other legends promise good luck or riches.” Or, “if you sit on the chair at a certain time, you can make a pact with the devil. You will get anything you want for seven years.” Then the devil will take your soul.
5)Devil’s haunted chair - Highland Park Cemetery, Kirksville, Missouri
Known as the “Baird Chair” since it’s in the Baird family plot, this chair is even more sinister than the others. A commenter on Atlas Obscura says that if someone sits on it at midnight or on Halloween, “an undead hand will emerge from the grave and drag the seated person to Hell.”
Would You Sit in the Devil’s Chair?
Still curious about devil’s chairs? If you happen upon one in a cemetery, cross your heart, spin in a circle three times, and recite the words “I ain’t afraid of no chair!” It won’t save you from the devil, a witch, or a ghost…but it will be highly entertaining for anyone who happens to walk by!
…yet, there’s always that kernel of truth. Unless that’s an urban legend, too.
But a word to the wise: If you want to go legend tripping, please do not sit on the so-called devil’s or witch’s chairs – and not because you’ll be cursed. These carved stone chairs are often made of marble, which is a soft stone, unlike granite. So, they might look sturdy even if they are really fragile. Many of them are over 100 years old. Use caution and respect when legend tripping devil’s chairs – or anything else.
