    Duff Green Mansion

    VicksburgUnited States1856–present

    Built in 1856 by wealthy cotton broker Duff Green, the Duff Green Mansion in historic Vicksburg, Mississippi, is a majestic Palladian-style antebellum home. During the grueling 47-day Siege of Vicksburg in 1863, the mansion served as a dual-designated military hospital for both Confederate and Union casualties, saving it from destruction by artillery shells. Today operating as a luxury bed and breakfast, the mansion is famous across the American South for phantom soldiers, bloodstains that seep through heart-pine floorboards, and ghostly encounters in its historic bedrooms.

    VicksburgUnited States1797–present

    Officially designated by National Geographic as the 'Most Haunted House in Mississippi' and widely ranked among the most active paranormal locations in the United States, McRaven Tour Home in Vicksburg is a time capsule of Southern history. Built in three distinct architectural eras (1797, 1836, and 1849), the mansion served as a Confederate field hospital during the brutal 47-day Siege of Vicksburg in 1863. With at least four documented deaths on the property and original bloodstains still visible on cypress floorboards, McRaven is world-famous for intense, multi-sensory ghost encounters.
