This is the best tour I’ve ever been on…

Oh my goodness I’d recommend this to anyone! Trish was the best and even gave us a little time to use copper rods to talk to the dead as we were the last tour of the night! If you’re sensitive to spirits like I am, you can feel prickles and tingles as you walk through the house as the ghosts let you know quickly who rules the roost. To add onto the greatness of this tour, Trish was funny and gave us amazing and harrowing facts about the land and also let us know where to take photos to catch apparitions. Ask to see her photos, you’ll never be the same again!

Be Warned

To start off, the tour was good. However, the bus ride over there was miserable. The bus did not have or had very little A/C. The ride over was about 30 minutes in what I presume to be 130°F heat inside the bus. By the time we got off the bus we were all throwing up. This in turn made it hard to enjoy the experience and the rest of the evening. So It kinda ruined the night and the next day. So be warned that if you do this tour in the summer, bring a fan and lots of water for the ride to the plantation.
