A Ghost Walke at the Upper Wolfsnare House

A Ghost Walke at the Upper Wolfsnare House

About

In 1759 Thomas Walke began construction on property his grandfather was granted in 1612. Unfortunately, he didn't live to see completion of the building. His son, Thomas Walke IV, moved into the house when it was completed in 1761. It is said that the spirit of Thomas Walke III occasionally visits the house he built, but never lived in. He has agreed to visit the house every half hour. Come visit the graveyard where you will see several familiar names. Hear the legend of Grace Sherwood, "The Witch of Pungo." Learn about old mourning spells customs. Hear first hand ghost stories from former residents of the plantation house. Private EMF detectors and spirit boxes welcome. The ground floor of the house will be open for self guided tours with docents nearby to answer questions.
Admission-free Donations welcome
