There are tells of numerous ghosts and sightings on the property. It all began with a curse of an old homeless woman when the Earl refused to give her help when she asked for it. For every branch on the old oak tree that fell, someone in his family would die. After one branch fell the Earl ordered the tree chained up and it's still chained today.

Chloe Report Abuse
Chloe was reportedly a slave at the Myrtles Plantation. Caught eavesdropping, her ear was chopped off. To pay the owner of the mansion back, she baked a cake or oleander leaves, which is very poisonous. While her intended victim was the man of the house, she ended up killing his wife and daughters instead. She was lynched and killed by the residents and slaves of the mansion.
