Built in 1796 by General David Bradford, this stately old home is said to be haunted be several restless ghosts.
Cleo a former slave who was allegedly hung on the premises for killing two little girls.
The ghosts of the two murdered children have been seen playing on the veranda.
William Drew Winter an attorney who lived at Myrtles from 1860 to 1871. He was shot on the side porch of the house by a stranger. With his life’s blood pouring from his body, Winter staggered into the house and began to climb the stairs to the second floor… but didn’t make it. He collapsed and died on the 17th step. It is his last dying footsteps that can still be heard on the staircase to this day.
