The Curse of Lizzie Borden Lizzie Borden is infamous for being the primary suspect in the brutal axe murders of her father and stepmother, which occurred in Fall River, Massachusetts in 1892. Although she was acquitted of the murders, the case has continued to capture the imagination of the public for over a century. The house where the murders took place, known as the Lizzie Borden Bed & Breakfast Museum, has become a popular tourist attraction. Many visitors claim to have had paranormal experiences while staying at the house, leading to the belief that it is cursed. Reports of the curse include strange occurrences such as unexplained footsteps, doors opening and closing on their own, and furniture moving by itself. Some visitors claim to have been physically pushed or scratched by unseen entities.
The Story Behind Eagles Song “Witchy Woman”
Even today, the Eagles are considered one of the best American bands of all time. Their first self-titled album came out in 1971 and it was an almost instant success. From that point forward, they became the subject of rock royalty. Throughout the 1970s, The Eagles had several number one singles, among them a song called “Witchy Woman.” This is a song that is still popular today, frequently showing up in all forms of pop culture. Perhaps the only thing that is more interesting than the song itself is the way that it was written.
Some visitors claim to have been physically pushed or scratched by unseen entities. Psychics and paranormal investigators have also visited the house to investigate the alleged curse. Some have reported capturing EVP (electronic voice phenomena) recordings of voices claiming to be Lizzie's victims and have detected abnormal energy readings in certain areas of the house.
The Band
Before we get into the way that the song was written, it’s important to know a little bit of background about the band responsible for it. Throughout their career, the Eagles had six number one albums, five songs that went to number one on the charts and have been the recipient of numerous Grammy Awards. They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. They truly achieved a level of success that very few people ever manage to achieve, even in their wildest dreams. The fact that “Witchy Woman” was on their very first album says a great deal about the band’s ability to perform and about lead vocalist Don Henley’s ability to write songs that would ultimately become hits. The reality of the situation is that this particular song launched his songwriting career. Once people heard it, they knew that he was the real deal and it was time to start taking him (and his band) seriously.
The curse of Lizzie Borden has also been known to affect those who have written or performed works based on the murders. Playwrights, authors, and filmmakers have claimed to experience bad luck or strange incidents while working on their projects. One theory behind the curse is that the angry spirits of Lizzie's father and stepmother continue to haunt the house, seeking justice for their murders. Others speculate that the curse is a result of the intense negative energy surrounding the case, which has seeped into the house and continues to affect those who enter. Despite the curse, the Lizzie Borden Bed & Breakfast Museum remains a popular tourist attraction. Some visitors are drawn to the morbid fascination of the murders, while others hope to catch a glimpse of the supernatural. Regardless of the truth behind the curse, the tale of Lizzie Borden continues to captivate and haunt the public's imagination..

Overall, I found "The Curse of Lizzie Bordej" to be a forgettable and unimpressive horror movie.
2. John - 1/5 stars - I can honestly say that "The Curse of Lizzie Bordej" is one of the worst horror movies I've seen in recent years. The plot was convoluted and made little sense, leaving me feeling confused and uninterested. The pacing was incredibly slow, and the few attempts at scares were laughable at best. The characters were one-dimensional, and I struggled to care about their fates. It's a shame because I had high hopes for this movie, but it turned out to be a complete letdown.
3. Emily - 2/5 stars - "The Curse of Lizzie Bordej" had potential, but it fell short in execution. The concept of the movie was intriguing, but it quickly became repetitive and predictable. The acting was mediocre, with some performances feeling forced and unnatural. The attempt at creating a spooky atmosphere was weak, and it failed to leave any lasting impression. Ultimately, "The Curse of Lizzie Bordej" failed to bring anything new or exciting to the horror genre, making it a forgettable watch.
