The Haunting of Historic Jamestowne

Join us as we explore a popular cultural heritage site located on Jamestown Island- just southwest of Williamsburg, Virginia... that preserves the remains of the first permanent English settlement in North America. Purported to harbor it's fair share of ghostly activity, are you prepared to brave the history and hauntings of Historic Jamestowne?

    I lived and worked up the road from Colonial Jamestown. 1982. I visited very frequently. I say go to Jamestown at night. That was always an interesting experience.

    I love this . I am a direct descendent of Jamestown men. I have an account on Geni and it’s so much fun to search a name in history and see the relationship to them . I have heard that most of the descendents of the first settlers are related and it’s true . I am related ( proven ) to many of the signers of the Declaration of Independence.. also to Pocahontas.

    As a Virginia resident, there are three places on the peninsula that are very eerie: Jamestowne, Yorktown and the Endview Plantation. I visited the Yorktown Battle field and smelled gunpowder in the air and heard French being spoken.

    Jamestowne is a perfect illustration of what not to do when you encounter a new society of people. There's a reason the place was ravaged by plague and hunger.

    The obvious is if they can't swim but for the sake of argument this is how. A person is an experienced competent swimmer. He/she drowns simply by tying a weight to themselves and nature does the rest unless they are so disciplined they can inhale water to choke without surfacing. According to medical experts, it only takes a small amount of water, approx a couple of tablespoons, to drown so you don't need an Olympic pool's worth. Either way, it has been reported that survivors say they'd rather be executed by firing squad than drown to death as their description of the burning exploding feeling the lungs feel is terrifying at the least.
