1966 [TUE]  The alleged haunting of Haw Branch Plantation (Amelia, Virginia USA)




MAY-23-1966   [MON]


LOCATION:
Amelia, Virginia USA


WHAT HAPPENED:
      At one time, the Haw Branch Plantation was spread out over more than 15,000 acres. As the years went by, the acreage was reduced, and the house fell into disrepair.
      In 1964, Cary McConnaughey and his wife, Gibson, bought the house. It was then restored and on August 13, 1965, the Mconnaugheys moved in.
      Three months later, on November 23, 1965, the couple and their children were awaken by a bloodcurdling scream but could find no source for it.
      Today, and six months later on November 23, the scream was repeated but no source could be found again.

      See, also August 13, 1965,
                     November 23, 1965
              and November 23, 1966.

      This event is alleged because science doesn't yet acknowledge that ghost exist because there is no hard evidence to support it... at least not yet anyway.
