William Winter
Sources attach this name to the 1 place below. The name itself is part of the folklore record.
William Winter — the attorney shot on the Myrtles' porch in 1871 — is the plantation's documented ghost: the man said to die again on the 17th step of the staircase. His murder is real; the staircase detail is the tour embellishment on a verified death. The seventeenth step is where the story ends. The claim holds its place in the ledger.
