Sam Adams book told of the trial of Elly Kedward, her execution and supposed “rebirth,” as well as the curse on the entire town. Fearing a curse, the townspeople immediately fled Blair, vowing never to utter the name "Elly Kedward" again. The next year, all of her accusers and half the town's children vanished without a trace.
