I don't know who has heard of the Mrytles Plantation North of Baton Rouge, but its the 2nd most Haunted house in America and 2 of my sororoty sisters and one Theta chi, we all went and actually had an encounter

while we were walking around the grounds before the mystery tour started, we noticed this smell that smelled like Lavender and it kept moving to different places, from the porch or in the garden(it was winter time). We didn't think anything of it, until on the tour, the guide was telling us of one of the women who died in the house, you can always tell where she is by her lavender perfume. Needless to say we freaked

I just love. love, love ghost stories and being scared!! One year my husband and I stayed at a B&B called the 17hundred90 in Savanah(sp) Georgia and stayed in the haunted room!! I kept trying to call the ghost out but she never appeared!! I was bummed, I thought maybe she would pull the covers down, or turn on the TV or turn on lights or something but nothing ever happened...oh well. I have posted the story on the Anna below.

nna Powers fell in love with a married seaman sometime in the early 1800's. She is said to have thrown herself to her own death from the third floor balcony onto the brick courtyard below just as the sails of his ship left her sight down the Savannah river toward sea. Since then her ghost is still believed to be haunting the inn, and primarily room 204. Many of our guests as well as employees have told of strange events occurring which have been attributed to the lonely heart of Anna Powers still waiting for her lover to return..

Also, I went on a ghost tour with a bunch of sisters from my college for an alumnae reunion in Charelston S.C. and it was not all that great. One or two good stories but the tour guide was mostly trying to sell a book that he said had more stories in it and talked more in depth about the stories he did tell us about. Shesh!!

The Ride was full of posers. All the best surfers are from Australia.

Says the douchebag who doesn't know jack shit about surfing. :rolleyes:

You've probably never even seen The Ride, you prick.

Quit fucking post stalking me.

Here's a ghost story that'll stick with you; I know it did me...

Definitely Not for the Faint of Heart or Weak of Stomach

My mother and I were in New Orleans many years ago. As we passed that mansion (I knew nothing of the story at the time), I looked up and there was a man aiming a long rifle at us. I grabbed my mother and pointed to the man but he was gone. :eek:

When I saw the mansion and heard the story on "Haunted New Orlens", I almost had a coronary.

Are you serious, C?

I'll tell you, I'm not normally weirded out by paranormal things but I would probably go out of my way to cross the street when walking past that particular house!

I wonder if it's even still there after Katrina.

I just got a brochure for this tour - worthwhile, huh? One of my ancestors was "operated" on in the Fish Market restaurant, which was a hospital during the War Between the States. On of the Yankee ones, for those who need to keep track.

As for that New Orleans tour - yikes!!! I could NOT take that!! *shudder*
