Paranormal Investigation Tours
FRIDAYS October 7-28, 2022
Poplar Grove is presenting an evening to perchance be visited by the spirits along a lighted pathway. Haunts, or haunts, of all ages from 1850 through the 20th century continue to hover in and around the Manor House, Tenant House, graveyard and grounds. Deceased members of the Foy family still make their presence known in particular rooms of the house, and there are lots of stories to share of how they have introduced themselves over the years. The former slaves and tenant farmers are no less evident than the trees silhouetting the night sky. A Scroll of the Dead will be provided that includes the names of family members who have passed on in the house.
