The Witch of Pungo takes center stage in this week’s Lunatic Soup as we dive into the life, legend, and lingering mystery of Grace Sherwood—the Virginia woman accused of bewitching neighbors, ruining crops, shapeshifting into a cat, and conjuring storms before being subjected to a trial by ducking in 1706. We explore who Sherwood really was beneath the folklore, how a tangle of superstition and community grudges fueled her reputation, and why her story still echoes through the marshes of Pungo today, where locals claim her spirit hasn’t entirely settled.
