Myrtles Plantation

And when you talk about Madame Lalaurie's house, I mean, it was torturing of slaves.

When you talk about, uh, Myrtles Plantation, once again it involves, uh, cruelty to slaves and then, um, killing of children, which we'll believe what we wanna believe, 'cause most people say that's just a fictitious story.

But a lot of these stories, you know, they do tend to lead back to some kind of cruelty, the, whether it be murder or just in general.

Exactly.

And one of them, there's been a few times where it's like it's happened with me and somebody that was nearby me, or they heard it as well.

And one of those cases was, uh, we were at the Myrtles Plantation, and everybody was downstairs at the staircase.

And I was walking down, coming down the staircase, and halfway down, like, at the top of the staircase, I heard, like, like if somebody was, like, running past the staircase.

You know, either, either past it or towards the staircase or away from the staircase.

And like I said, me, me and my team are the same way where, you know, we experience something and we try to figure out, well, maybe it was the AC.

Maybe it was somebody on the other side of the wall, you know, that, that was walking by.

You know? We try to figure out what it could've been before we say, "Oh, that definitely was a spirit," you know? So, um, a- and that's why like, like I said, that, um, thing I experienced with, with the, with the footsteps, you know, at Myrtles Plantation, like I, I know nobody was upstairs.

Like, I was the, the last one leaving from the second floor going down to the first floor, and I knew nobody else was up there on the second floor.

Examples include The Philip Experiment, where a group created a fictional spirit manifesting knocks.

Myrtle's Plantation and Winchester Mystery House may see amplified activity from tourism.

Thoughtforms blur reality and belief, highlighting mind's power and perceived hauntings.

So they're saying you're expecting to go in there and hear knocking and you make yourself believe you're hearing knocking.

That is

such an interesting thing to say, because something like that happened to me at the Myrtles Plantation.

I, we went for my birthday.

I was trying to have, I was trying to like do an investigation.

I'm not scared of death anymore because I know where I'm going.

But like I said, who wants to think about actually how am I going to get there? And how, if this world is so spiritual and there is so much energy in the world, how can these places not be spiritually charged in a negative way with the way people are violently taken out? You know what I mean? I mean, take the Myrtles Plantation, right? This plantation is regularly called one of the most haunted homes in America.

You probably know about Chloe, the enslaved woman that was forced to wear a green turban and they cut off part of her ear.

basically tortured her she ended up poisoning parts of the family and was hung for it she's said to haunt there and then we also have william drew winter in 1871 he was shot outside his home and he's obviously bleeding out trying to find a way back inside staggering up the stairs but only makes it to the 17th step there he dies his life has ended but people hear him way after he's gone people say that they often hear footsteps running fast fast fast but they stop at the 17th step the footsteps go down and they come back up even faster stopping at the 17th step and it's almost like someone trying their hardest to break this like endless loop of their death like i want to get past that 17th step is that not so creepy multiple people have accounted to hearing this before media be like this is stories that are passed down that brings me to salem and i knew i wanted to talk about salem but i don't want to focus on the execution site like everyone else does there is another location with more specific ghost tradition and that is called the joshua ward house so this property was built in the 18th century and has direct connection with the salem witch trials now this land was um previously associated with a man named george kirwin or not kirwin corwin rather so this man was trash he was a high sheriff a dirty cop if you for lack of better words he basically would escort the prisoners or the accused to the trial site.

I wouldn't say afraid to go back, but certainly one that I would go back with apprehension, I suppose.

And that's the Myrtles Plantation down in Louisiana, which was a popular destination when I was taking people.

I may be doing it again this coming spring.

We go to New Orleans for a three-day weekend, and then we extend for another couple days for those who want to spend more time and take the bravest people.

But he said the vibe was so strong, he knew he got this picture and he needed to leave now.

So have you ever had that

kind of a situation? The scariest situation perhaps was down in Louisiana at the Myrtles Plantation in St.

Francisville.

Well, you asked your famous Annabelle.

Um, you got the mirrors at Myrtle plantation.

I think of John Zaffis and his haunted not library, but his collection, which I believe he's leaving to his son.

And by the way, when I started helping people, I started extracting a lot of stuff from people's houses.

The Stanley Hotel in Colorado, inspiring Stephen King's The Shining, 1977, features furniture rearrangements and EVP responses.

Myrtle's Plantation in Louisiana combines residual and intelligent activity, with EVP communications since the 1796 Plantation's tragic history.

These sites, investigated by groups, the Society for Research, show patterns of purposeful engagement.

Intelligent hauntings often involve tools like spirit boxes or EVP sessions, where responses are captured.

It's a delight, and it's always a delight to get a collection such as this, because I think there's so much hidden away in the South in regards to some of these lesser-known locations.

There are some very notorious places, such as the Myrtles Plantation and Waverley Hills and the like.

But I love these kind of books because when they're written by a local...

For people like me who've never had, well, I've been to Florida, but that doesn't really count, Sherry.

I'll try to stay overnight there.

I would probably suggest that the Myrtles is probably the most famous plantation in the world because it's probably the one haunted one that's most well-known outside of the US.

People here all know about the Myrtles Plantation and the stories, and it's often featured on ghost hunting shows and mystery shows.

It seems to be one of the key locations of the South that you've got to go.
