The Myrtles Plantation

The Myrtles Plantation, built in 1796, is considered one of America’s most haunted homes. Built allegedly on a Tunica burial ground, the house is said to be home to twelve ghosts.

Chloe

The most famous ghost is Chloe, an enslaved woman who allegedly poisoned the Woodruff family. Her ghost, wearing a green turban, has been photographed at the plantation.

Other Ghosts

William Winter’s ghost climbs the stairs where he was shot in 1871. Children’s laughter echoes through empty rooms. Hand prints appear on mirrors.

The plantation operates as a bed and breakfast where guests frequently report paranormal experiences.
