TOMORROW!! : Step back in time with a visit to the historic Ferry Plantation House on Cheswick Lane in VA Beach! 🏠 This enchanting Federal-style home, built in 1830, boasts original features like 6’ heart pine flooring, ornate mantels, and charming wooden trim. But the real allure lies in its rich history and ghostly tales that have stood the test of time. 👻
From its beginnings as a courthouse to its role as a plantation, school, and even a post office, this house has witnessed it all. But the most captivating story revolves around Grace Sherwood, accused of witchcraft in the 17th century. Grace's tale, full of lawsuits, mysterious events, and even a trial by ducking, lingers as one of many haunted narratives within these walls.
As the sun sets, locals say you might spot Grace wandering the riverbank, reliving her near-death experience. And she's not alone. The Lady in White, children pressed against walls, and a grieving fiancée named Sally Rebecca Walke all add to the ethereal aura. 🌙
For those intrigued by history and the supernatural, a visit to the Ferry Plantation House promises an unforgettable experience. And if you're feeling particularly adventurous, you can even rent out the entire house with a group of 12 for a night of ghostly encounters! Who's ready to meet the spirits that still call this historic house home? 🕯️🌿
