Body of Missing Tulsan is Found from Rothline on Vimeo.

This is episode 2 "Body of Missing Tulsan Found." This video series, "Mistress of the Hex House" is based on a true story. It is about Carolann Smith who mesmerized and held two women in a basement of a duplex as slaves for eight years. This breaking news story occurred in March of 1944 and took place in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Tulsans became infatuated with the tale and began to visit the duplex on Halloween nights to tell ghost stories. Even after the duplex was torn down in 1975 Tulsans still told spooky stories about the parking lot that replaced the home.

The bizarre tale also inspired the Hex House Haunted Attraction that started in 2008, which has been consistently named the scariest Halloween attraction in the nation for several years. That YouTube channel is youtube.com/channel/UCIMm5ny19KlaTD8QcsFsd9g. The website is at hexhouse.com/.

A chapter is dedicated to the Hex House story in the book "Tulsa's Haunted Memories" written by Teri French. Book available on Amazon at amazon.com/Tulsas-Haunted-Memories-Teri-French-ebook/dp/B0099YH1DM. Teri French also has a YouTube channel at youtube.com/channel/UC5BaAn_BppESFXIPMtCTBnA and a website at tulsaspirittour.com/.

The YouTube video "The Hex House of Tulsa Oklahoma" was published to this channel in 2018 and has been the second most watched video on the channel since then. "Oklahoma Deer Lady" is the most watch video on this channel.

So the question occurred: what happened before, after, during the events of the Hex House? This video series works on answering those questions.

This story has been developed with research on articles from the Tulsa World, the Tulsa Tribune, as well as other local newspapers.

This research was conducted with the help of the Tulsa City County Library (tulsalibrary.org/) and the Tulsa World (tulsaworld.com/).
