The Experience

It started with a joke from our guide, Marcus — something about how the dead in Savannah don’t mind company, as long as you’re respectful. I laughed, but I kept glancing at the shadows under those old oaks in Johnson Square. The air felt thick, like it was holding its breath. There was this faint smell — not quite flowers, not quite earth — that kept drifting by. Marcus pointed to the ground and said we were standing over unmarked graves. I tried not to step too hard after that, you know?

We wound through the historic district, past those grand houses with their shutters pulled tight. At Colonial Park Cemetery, Marcus lowered his voice and told us about yellow fever victims and graves lost beneath the grass. Someone behind me whispered they felt a chill on their arm; I thought it was just the breeze until I noticed my own skin prickling. The headstones looked almost soft in the streetlight, but there was nothing gentle about those stories — body snatchers, Civil War soldiers, names scratched out by time.

I didn’t expect to feel so uneasy outside the Marshall House — just looking up at those windows gave me goosebumps. Marcus shared how it used to be a hospital during the war; he said sometimes people hear footsteps when no one’s inside. Maybe it’s silly, but I found myself listening for them anyway. By the time we reached 432 Abercorn Street (locals really do cross the street there), I was half-laughing at my own nerves.

The Sorrel-Weed House was last — regal on the outside but heavy with stories of tragedy inside. Marcus paused before telling us what happened there; even he seemed unsettled for a second. There was a moment when everything went quiet except for some far-off laughter from another street and I swear it felt like someone was watching us from an upstairs window. Maybe that’s just what Savannah does to you at night.
