Grove Point Plantation is 10 minutes down the road form our house. Our friend Mike took me down there. There are a few ghost stories about that area. So wanting a little entertainment I had him take me there. While there I snapped some photos just for the heck of it. It was just him and I, the land has been vacant for a long time now.... Not even sure if the actual plantation house is still there but, the slave house is still barely standing. That is what we went to see. The plantation drive way is at the end of a dead end street and the land it's self is surrounded by marsh/bog land, So there is nothing and no one out there but us. The slave house is about a mile down the driveway, the house if still there is further back past the slave house. So below are a few pictures of the once slave house and some for the cool things that showed in the pictures.
The two photos below there is a baby in the window. You will need to zoom in to see it, to do that you might have to save the photo to your computer for the moment. If you can't see it in the first picture, I lightened the spot were the baby is in the second one so you can see she or he.

A few years ago I wrote a children's ghost story about Grove Point. I too have pics of this place. Very interesting history behind this plantation.
I went to Grove Point Plantation when I was a young girl it was 1983some friends of my parents were the caretakers I was told lots of ghost stories about the house especially about Blackbeard's girlfried Jane who still walks the grounds and lives in a bathroom in the house which was once a bedroom she has been seen many times and even spoke to them. I heard many ghost stories while I was there, that day has always stuck in my mind. Jane Molden, Manchester, England
I just left the place. The Plantation house is about another half mile past the slave house. It is beautiful. Great Dane Trailer company owns it now. The orginal Cape Fear (1962) was filmed there.
Does anyone know how to get a room to spend the night here ?
I'm actually here as we speak. I'm in the haunted room right now trying to sleep. The room with Black Beards lady friend. It's creepy but nothing yet.

I didn't think the house was habitable anymore?
