Hi Mr. Woolfolk,

Thank you for contributing that info. We'll amend the article accordingly, but I just want to mention that the original article does not make mention of the word "murder" in regards to Woolfolk House. :)

The John W. Woolfolk home in Columbus, GA may very well be haunted, but there is not much truth to the tale of slaves murdered there. Fact is, the Woolfolk Plantation, during its existence, had over 700 slaves (do...ented in Columbus Georgia Public Library). The plantation was settled in 1828 and the structure began that same year. So, from 1828 up until April 1865, there were slaves that more than likely died and were buried there. To refer to this house as the "House of a 1000 Cadevers" equates the mentality that thought this up, because they owned up to 700 slaves, not a 1000. And to say that 18 slaves were murered there is not possible because by the standards of that time, you could not murder a slave; you could kill one, but not murder because murder is a crime and it wasn't a crime to kill a slave during that era.

Hi - thanks for your comment. I believe the dates are correct - as I understand it, the hauntings weren't related to Williams' death, and allegedly the exorcism in 1963 was unsuccessful.

Hampton Lillibridge house are these dates right? Because the exorcism was performed in 1963 in order to rid the house of these evil spirts but Mr. Williams didn't die until 1990.
