Okay, paranormal enthusiasts…which location would you rather investigate (or have you?)?

A. MYRTLES PLANTATION

The Myrtles Plantation, located in St. Francisville, Louisiana, is a historic antebellum mansion that has gained a reputation as one of the most haunted homes in America. It was originally built in 1796 by General David Bradford and later became known as the Myrtles Plantation due to the abundance of myrtle trees on the property.

One of the most famous legends associated with the Myrtles Plantation involves a slave named Chloe. According to the story, Chloe was a house slave who had an affair with the plantation owner’s son. In an attempt to win favor and protect herself, she baked a cake containing poisonous oleander leaves. Unfortunately, the plan backfired, and it is believed that Chloe accidentally killed Sarah, the plantation owner’s wife, and her two daughters.

Today, it is said that Chloe’s spirit still haunts the Myrtles Plantation. Visitors have reported seeing a ghostly figure of a woman wearing a green turban, believed to be Chloe, wandering the property. Other paranormal phenomena experienced at the Myrtles include strange noises, unexplained footsteps, flickering lights, and even the sensation of being touched by unseen hands.

The Myrtles Plantation is open to the public and offers guided tours that delve into its rich history and paranormal legends. The house is meticulously preserved and showcases period furniture, décor, and architecture, giving visitors a glimpse into plantation life in the 19th century. Whether or not you believe in the supernatural, the Myrtles Plantation provides an intriguing and atmospheric experience for those interested in history and ghostly folklore.

NOTE: The Chloe legend has not been validated and it is a legend, but whether it is Chloe haunting the property or someone else, this location is quite active according to investigators.
