The Legend of Bouncing Bertha

In 1938 “Bouncing Bertha” was not a new hit song. It was the name given to a young girl who’s bed seemed to be haunted by poltergeist activity. People flocked from all around to witness the phenomenon. Many, ...including the wife of famous magician, Harry Houdini, claimed it was a hoax created by the girl. Her family insisted it was not. What do you think?

In 1915, Cecil Chubb, a wealthy barrister, purchased Stonehenge at an auction for £6,600 as a gift for his wife, Mary. However, Mary was not pleased with the gift, as she had expected something more practical, like a set of dining chairs. Despite her disappointment, Chubb held onto the ancient ...monument for a few years. Recognizing the historical and cultural significance of Stonehenge, he decided to donate it to the British government in 1918. His generous act was driven by a desire to ensure the preservation and public accessibility of the site.

When Chubb donated Stonehenge, he included specific conditions to benefit the public. He stipulated that the entrance fee should never exceed one shilling, making it affordable for everyone. Additionally, he ensured that local residents would have free access to the site. This gesture was aimed at fostering a sense of community ownership and appreciation for the monument. Chubb's donation marked the beginning of Stonehenge's transformation into a protected heritage site, allowing future generations to enjoy and study this iconic prehistoric structure. Today, Stonehenge remains one of the most visited and revered landmarks in the world, thanks in part to Chubb's foresight and generosity.

The George Wythe House- Built in 1753, this Georgian style home is said to be haunted. Reverend W.A.R. Goodwin, twice Rector of the Bruton Parish Church, once used this home as his rectory. In 1936 he wrote to an inquirer from Pittsburgh answering her question about the ghosts she had heard haunted... the Parish House.

Legends had it that the hauntings involved as many as three ghosts. Goodwin’s correspondent wanted descriptions. He said “they are very elusive ghosts and refuse to be delineated or described within the limits of any paragraph. The only way,” he told Miss Gibbs of Pittsburgh, “is to come here and hold communion with them.”

We hold communion with them regularly! The question is, have you?? Visit: theghosttour.com #theghosttour #fypage #boocrew #colonialwilliamsburg #walkingtours #thingstodo #shareablecontent #hauntedplaces
