ATU searches for Easter bells, pilgrimage and Rome surfaced 1315** White Mare Thought to be a Church and 1828 The Rooster at Church Crows. Those are misidentification/rooster tales, not the popular belief that bells make a Rome pilgrimage while silent.

Thompson-Motive

V115 “Church bells” is the actual subject of this account: their annual silence is explained by the popular belief that the bells make a pilgrimage to Rome to confess. D1643 “Object travels by itself” remains possible because this is expressly reported folk belief, not eyewitness observation; the speaking-bells and origin-of-bells candidates remain unsupported.
