White Point Garden in Charleston is a beautiful location on the Battery. Unfortunately, everything that glitters is not gold. According to many sources, the grounds are allegedly haunted by a cast of unsavory characters, including the infamous pirate Stede Bonnet and his men, who met their untimely fate here in 1718.
It is believed the spirits of Bonnet’s group still roam the park searching for their executioners. The picturesque park was once the site of the gallows for Charles Town and was previously marshland.
People have reported apparitions, strange lights, screams, and cold spots throughout the park.
