Is a portrait of Aunt Pratt to blame for ghostly activity at this Virginia plantation?
Shirley Plantation in Charles City County, Virginia is among the Old Dominion's most historic haunted abodes. Sir Thomas West, 3rd Baron De La Warr and first colonial royal governor of Virginia, first settled on this land in 1613, making it older than even the Plymouth colony in Massachusetts. The manor itself, built in 1723, was constructed in magnificent Georgian style. Its most famous ghost story dates back to the seventeenth or early eighteenth centuries with the death of "Aunt Pratt", whose portrait hung in a prominent place on the ground floor. In later years, an owner removed the portrait and stored it in the attic, touching off a flurry of strange activity widely blamed on Aunt Pratt's ghost. After a brief but 'lively' stint in New York, the painting was finally returned to its place on Shirley's walls. The otherworldly activity has since dissipated. #virginia #plantation #paranormal #supernatural #ghost #ghosts #ghoststories #haunted #spooky
