The Myrtles Plantation in St. Francisville is known for being haunted but it isn’t too often that visitors get to take a picture with a ghost. Tour Director Hester Eby says a group of women took a picture in the breezeway and it appears that Chloe wanted to photo bomb the selfie.

See the photo on the plantation's Facebook page.

Eby says as revenge Chloe poisoned a cake that killed the owner’s wife and two children so she was hanged. She says every once in a while, Chloe is known to pop into a picture.

 

Eby says The Myrtles is already nationally known as a haunted house but expects the viral photo will help bring in visitors in the near future.
