Built on ancient burial grounds, Williamsburg seemed destined to be cursed. From its inception, The Burg has experienced the horror that comes with desecrating sacred ground, including unsolved murders, waves of deadly diseases, and the devastation left by the Civil War. The remnants of Williamsburg’s dark days have remained, infecting almost every building in this historic Colonial town.
Explore the hauntings of well-known spirit-infested locations such as the Peyton Randolph House, where at least 30 people died within its walls, and the George Wythe House, where the spirit of the murdered owner continues to roam the halls. Prepare for an unforgettable night on a heart-pounding Williamsburg Ghost Tour.
Thomas Jefferson and George Washington attended services here and Martha Washington’s great-grandfather once served as Reverend. It’s also the place where god-fearing folks flocked to and whet once, a Preacher’s wife – the love of his life – grew deathly ill and passed away. What made her come back to the land of the living? What trespass by her husband commanded Mrs. Jones’ spirit to haunt the church ground?
The Peyton Randolph House is another old structure from the early 1700s. Today, it has a reputation for being one of the most haunted sites in Virginia. The home belonged to the late politician Peyton Rudolph, and several famous revolutionary-era figures visited the home regularly. Like the Bruton Parish Church, it also served as a hospital for wounded soldiers. Throughout the years, various tragedies occurred, which gave the site its haunted reputation.
The Wythe House was a residence known to house the elite members of Williamsburg. George Wythe was a law professor and a mentor of Thomas Jefferson. As General Washington’s headquarters during the Revolutionary War, the house played an essential part in the birthing of America. Strategists drew up many battle plans for the Battle of Yorktown right here at the site. A few untimely deaths supposedly occurred at the home, potentially leaving some ghostly spirits behind. Visitors can tour the home and experience the creepy phenomena themselves.
