Waving Girl Statue on the Savannah Riverfront

This is the Statue of the Waving Girl in Savannah Georgia. Located on the waterfront close to the Marriott Hotel. This is Florence Martus and her dog waving at passing ships hoping to lift the spirits of the sailors aboard them. She was actually waiting for her husband to come home from a journey on the high seas. He never did return to Savannah. Florence is buried in a nearby cemetery whose name escapes me at the moment.


Mercer-WIlliams House, Savannah Ga.

 
This is a video of the Johnny Mercer House. aka "The house from the book" , the book being
"Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" . This was the home of Jim Williams, the subject of the book and subsequent movie. Originally this was the house of Johnny Mercer, the famous musician who is also buried nearby in Bonaventure Cemetery, also a must see.

The Bird Girl Staue from the book.
 This statue used to be in Bonaventure Cemetery, but after the popularity of the book it was moved to a museum in Savannah Historic District, where you have to pay to see it and you can't take any pictures of it. This is a postcard that you can buy that is signed by the photographer.


Savannah Georgia, The Most Haunted City in America?

Savannah is said to be the most haunted city in America. While that may or may not be true, Savannah is a great place to take a visit to when you get the chance. Below I have included some photos and videos of supposed ghosts of Savannah. I'll let you be the judge. Feel free to leave comments below on what you think you saw in the videos or photos.
Also included are a couple of never before seen photos that I took, that defy any explanation so far. Let me know what you think.

 
Up first we have the story of the little ghost boy seen in Colonial Park Cemetery. The cemetery has a storied history, from little girls being killed here by a serial killer who was subsequently hung for killing 2 little girls, and after he was dead another little girl was killed. You can clearly see a boy in the video, but there is a playground of sorts right behind where the camera is pointing, right on the other side of the fence.


 
This video has more of the history of Colonial Park Cemetery, including the story of Rene.


 
The Sorrel-Weed House is a story all its own. If you go to Savannah this is a must see tour.
The tour guides are very knowledgable about the previous residents of the house. General Robert E. Lee stayed here during the Civil War. The present owner doesn't care to even be near the house after he was scared out of his wits at the house. He now lives across the country. Take the night tour if you can to see the night vision cameras set up throughout the basement to see some amazing orbs.




This house at 432 Abercorn also has a tragic story behind it. The house is currently unoccupied and the owner has no plans to open it up for tours or sell it.

Ok now for the good stuff. I was at the Mighty 8th Airforce Museum for a party of sorts. I was taking pictures and I saw this cool guitar. So I took a picture of it, without a flash, and I thought it was too dark. So I turned on my flash and took a second picture. Upon looking at my pictures when I got home, I couldn't believe what I saw. It is unexplainable to me, I don't know where that face came from, my flash should have washed anything out on that glass, not made something reflect on there.
So I still can't explain it. If anyone knows of the face in that pic, feel free to leave a comment below.

No trip to Savannah would be complete without a trip to Bonaventure Cemetery to see Gracie Watson's Gravesite. Watch the video.
