Can ghosts have sex with people? Hmmm... The old nursery upstairs
is the favorite trysting place for the Judge,---that is, Judge Clarke
Woodruff, the rotten old lech who would lead a young slave girl up the
backstairs during the time of their affair. Single women who sleep in
that room often report that the ghost of the Judge slips into bed with
them and skillfully seduces them!
Other hauntings: The
room known as the Bridal Suite was once the bedroom of Sarah and
William Stirling. It is active most of the time, as are most of the
rooms downstairs. Footsteps, laughter, music that comes out of no where
and the scent of perfume are common throughout the house. In the
Spring and Fall parties are heard and seem to go on all night. Every
Thanksgiving there is the sound of a string quartet.
Ghosts
are seen on the grounds in broad daylight. Some of them are dressed in
period clothes of the Civil War South some are in present day clothes.
The ghosts look like regular people until they suddenly disappear!
Like: A woman in a green turban who carries a lighted brass candle
holder; a long earring dangles from her ear; she bends over beds... An
investigator from the Star newspaper said, while she was in it, staying
in the "Bridal Suite", her bed floated off the floor! A soldier
dressed in Civil War Confederate gray silently guards the Myrtles...
Why
are there so many ghosts at the Myrtles? Some think it's because the
house was built over a Native American burial ground. Another theory is
that so many emotional and passionate events happened there.
Hello. I'm writer Antoinette Beard/Sorelle Sucere. Welcome to my blog, which is dedicated to all the loving, intelligent, brave, wise, strong, gentle, kind, sweet-and-geeky, humble-and-patient, --- whether they have hands, paws, hooves, wings, fins, or even, --- yes, flippers, --- and to all eager readers and hard-working authors, everywhere. ;)
Meanwhile...
I love all creatures. I consider them, all of them, to be sentient beings... I write thrillers, fantasy, mysteries, gothic horror, romantic adventure, occult, Noir, westerns and various types of short stories. I also re-tell traditional folk tales and make old fairy tales carefully cracked. I'm often awake very early in the morning. A cuppa, and fifteen minutes later I'm usually writing something. ;)
