    Rose Hill Plantation

    BlufftonUnited States1850s–present

    Rose Hill Plantation House, located along the Colleton River in Bluffton, South Carolina, is a grand Gothic Revival mansion constructed in the late 1850s by Dr. John Kirk and his wife Caroline. Left unfinished for over a century due to the outbreak of the Civil War, the estate holds a tragic history marked by wartime abandonment, family grief, and a devastating 1987 fire. Visitors, wedding guests, and staff members report encountering supernatural phenomena inside the mansion, including the spirit of Emily Kirk, disembodied organ music, unexplainable footsteps on the grand staircase, and spectral apparitions roaming the moss-draped riverbank grounds.
