The Myrtles Plantation is steeped in chilling lore, most famously centered around 'Chloe,' an enslaved girl owned by Clark and Sara Woodruff. Legend says Chloe was punished for eavesdropping, and in retaliation, poisoned a birthday cake intended only for Sara, but inadvertently killed Sara and her two daughters. Chloe was allegedly hanged by fellow enslaved people. Her spirit, often seen wearing a green turban, is claimed to be one of many haunting the grounds. Other reported phenomena include child spirits playing on the veranda, a grand piano playing by itself, and numerous other ghostly residents linked to the plantation's long and tragic history. Despite debate over historical accuracy, particularly concerning Chloe's very existence, the stories make The Myrtles a premier destination for paranormal enthusiasts.
