Island Spirits: Ghost Tales from the Virgin Islands


Listen Later

Come explore the paranormal side of the U.S. Virgin Islands with us!

 

We’ll discuss the eerie happenings at The Buccaneer Hotel on St. Croix, where restless pirate spirits and a heartbroken lady in white roam.

 

Next we'll venture over to Bluebeard’s Castle in St. Thomas to uncover the haunted history of Bluebeard and his ghostly wives. Why so many wives?

 

Then, we’ll hike the haunted trails of the Annaberg Plantation and Cinnamon Bay, where the whispers of the past echo through the ruins. We’ll even visit the spooky Old Danish Cemetery, where mysterious lights and ghostly figures live on forever!

 

And of course, no episode would be complete without a cryptid! We’ll share the chilling tales of the Lou Garu, the werewolf of St. Thomas.
