Step lightly, dear reader. Some houses are built to shelter, but others are built to remember.
The Myrtles Plantation, tucked away in St. Francisville, Louisiana, is no ordinary home. It has been called “one of America’s most haunted houses” — a place where mirrors keep secrets, footsteps echo long after the halls are empty, and sorrow refuses to die politely.
In this episode of The Ink Plots Podcast, I’ll take you inside its shadowed corridors, weaving history and legend into a tale that feels equal parts Stephen King and Tales from the Crypt. From poisoned feasts to ghostly children, from restless piano keys to the infamous haunted mirror, the Myrtles has earned its place in America’s darkest folklore.
Will you dare to listen?
Press play if you’re brave enough.
