The Voodoo priestess & the hurricane

Amazingly, the Weather Channel is taking tips from the History Channel and now has a program on Sundays called American Supernatural, a blend of the paranormal and – what else? – weather. Of course, it’s the Weather Channel.

One of their first programs was about small Louisiana town along the banks of the Mississippi River, named Frenier. Don’t look for it on a map. It no longer exists and some folks say the reason the town vanished was that a voodoo priestess named Julia Brown said over and over that the town would die  when she died. Amazingly, she was right.

In the early evenings, Julia would sit on her front porch singing and playing her guitar. One song that she sang over and over again, day after day, had these strange lyrics:  “One day I’m gonna die, and I’m gonna take all of you with me.”

On Sept. 28, 1915, Julia died and the next day all the town folk were gathered at the wake for Julia. That was when a devastating hurricane struck, wiping out the town and killing all but two or three people, who lived to tell the eerie tale of Julia Brown.

Good going, Weather Channel. Who would’ve figured that mediums and meteorologists would mingle together on that channel.

  1. Weird, also interesting that two or three people survived – I wonder why …

    If that doesn’t make you believe, nothing will…

      It’s pretty spooky. Even if she didn’t consciously wish everyone in town would die when she did, it’s still astonishing. She was singing those lines over and over, predicting exactly what happened. Pretty freaky. Definitely a meteorological synchro.

    The Weather Channel has been reporting all sorts of strange stuff lately. Let’s face it – we live in a weird and wonderful world.
