The Myrtles plantation

Have any of you paranormal research groups represented here ever investigated the Myrtles Plantation? it's said to be one of the most haunted houses in the country.

I have been there and yes it is very haunted. I have on my recorder a man's voice telling us to "GET OUT OF THIS HOUSE" and I saw a black woman who looked like "Cleo" walk pass me and I thought it was part of the staff.....it wasn't.

My sister saw on their website that they had a cafe on the premises so she called to make lunch reservations and she spoke to a man.....she gave him the time of our arrival and how many in our party and reserved it under her name. When we pulled into the Myrtles.... the cafe was closed.
We went inside to find out what was going on and they said they do not
serve lunch. My sister told them that she spoke to a man and made the reservations with him. The lady said you spoke to a ghost and he also stands at the front gate to the plantation and will tell visitors that the plantation is closed.
We walked around the grounds where the pond is and heard the cabin doors slam close....they were locked, saw a huge ball of light at the end of the pasture....this was during the day.

It is worth the trip to New Orleans to see the Myrtles....you will not be disapointed.

Thanks for the good read Oregonmom.

I am not an investigator, but after reading this article on the plantation, I hope to someday go there when I am in Louisiana. The amount of deaths caused by hangings, gunning, poisons, etc... must have caused the spirits to have a lot of angst. Such a great place to visit for the atmosphere, historical surroundings , and possibly spiritual presence.

Scotty...Beam me there NOW!!!! 😆

I saw the TAPS eipsode also and have been interesting going there. And after reading Norene's experences I really want to go there. I've actually been wondering if it had survived Katrina. I didn't know where to find out though.

Since I live in Louisiana and the Myrtles is only 45min. form me I have been to it a few times. But it is in St. Fransville not New Oreleans. I don't know why everyone seems to think that LOL. I went to it on one of the Plantation tours before. It does have a fancy restaurant there I have eaten in it. But I guess you would not call it a cafe. It cost a lot to eat there as does the rooms if you stay over. The rooms start at $115.00 and go up to $230.00 a night. The cheaper ones are not in the house but on the grounds behind the house. I have yet to stay over or investigate it myself. However I have heard an interesting story first hand by friends of my husband that took a night tour. Two couples that he knew went on their night tour and the ladies were told to either not wear their jewelry or be careful with it. They were told they sometimes on the tours that earrings and rings or bracelts came up missings. But they did not heed these warrings. They chose to ignore them. They were also told about seeing a ghost cat. Well they did ......they said a cat that showed up red in their photos. Well that meant nothing to me. I know about photography and animals and how that can happen..............big deal. Well after their tour they got back into their car and were on their way home when one of the ladies looked down to find out her bracelt was gone. One of the other ladies felt of her ears and one of her earrings were gone! And the other ladies earring was flipped up. Coincidence? Maybe.......LOL.

The spirits there must be rich..lol..but I have never been although it is certainly on our list to visit..possibly in 08.. 😉

I am so there....It's on my top 10 places to investigate for sure...Whoooo Hooooo!!!!!

Make sure you let me know when. I would love to go with you if you would not mind me going along with you.

Allow me to shed some light on the "Most haunted place in Louisiana" 99.9% of there haunting is crap. I have lived within spitting distance of the house for 20 years and have even been in it over night with a former owner. his own words "If its haunted you got me?" As someone who has spent months of time there including working as a Docent "Tour guide" in the house. If its haunted it isn't by those supposed ghosts. There has been 1 ONE verified death at that house according to the West Feliciana historical records.

Take a look at this

I am not saying it isn't spooky or even haunted but it definitely does not claim the title of "most haunted in Louisiana." you want Haunted go to Port Hudson and walk there trails. I have personally seen 1 full body apparition in the daylight and on several occasions heard cannon fire at nite in the place.

I hate bursting folks bubble but I wanted to be honest with you. The home is beautiful and it has a rich history but what ya get on the "Ghost" tour is as made up as the tooth fairy!
