Georgetown County, located
between Myrtle Beach and Charleston, South Carolina, is steeped in tales
of dynamic men and women who once lived and prospered here. Though these
men and women have now passed away, many of their spirits still remain.
There are rumored to be over a hundred ghosts in the area, making
Georgetown County one of the nation's most haunted locations.
Ghosts of Georgetown
tell the stories of twenty of these apparitions. The ghosts in these
tales range from the woman who died a horrible and tragic death on her
wedding day, to the daughter of a former lighthouse keeper who warns
sailors of impending storms, to the phantom choir whose voices can still
be heard coming from the ruins of its former church. The stories tell of
scorned lovers, innocent children, and wealthy plantation owners who
have all returned to Georgetown long after their natural lives on earth
were over. These tales weave the history of Georgetown's colorful past
with the eerie spirits who roam the region in the present.
