About this quest
Eventually, the townspeople became convinced that the bell was cursed and buried it in an undisclosed location. To this day, no one knows where the bell is buried.
What makes this quest special
Highlights
Search for the cursed bell and break the spell. You and the children in the church choir had grown up hearing the story of the cursed bell and how it was said to bring misfortune and tragedy to anyone who disturbed it.
The St. John the Baptist Church was home to a cursed bell that had been buried somewhere for over two hundred years.
