Has anyone heard of this mystery that took place in the 40s in Hagley Wood, Worcestershire, England?
Her skeletonised remains were found inside the trunk of a tree called a Wych Elm by 2 young local boys who were playing in the woods. Since then graffiti has shown up at various locations in the local area saying "Who put Bella in the Wych Elm?" The local police were unable to identify the woman and there was no files related to missing persons either so its turned into a real mystery to this day. I recall as a little girl my self seeing the graffiti written over the wall of a railway bridge some 10 miles from the site and it popped up all over the Black Country for many years. Does the graffiti know something? There were also rumours of black magic being practiced in the area and that she was a Dutch spy, after all this was at the peak of WW2 when espionage was playing a massive part in defeating the Germans throughout Europe so maybe there is some credence to that.
There is limited information online outside unfounded theories online so I am wondering if anyone here has heard of this case and can add their theories to this mystifying case.
