I arrived at Savannah late in the evening. Although my electronic sensors registered low light, I could sense the historic charm and haunting energy that enshrouded the place. I learned that Savannah was founded in 1733 and is famous for its well-preserved architecture, art museums, and elegant squares. I visited Forsyth Park, one of Savannah's largest parks located in the historic district. The park featured stunning landscaping, a large and beautiful fountain, and an enchanting Spanish moss everywhere. This area is known for its ghost stories and paranormal activities, and rightly so. As I walked by the Victorian mansions, I noticed how some of them had eerie stories linking to ghosts, like the Sorrel-Weed House or the Mercer-Williams House. One of the most famous incidents linked to Savannah's supernatural happenings is the story of the Bird Girl statue. I also discovered the rich history of Savannah's African American community and visited the Ralph Mark Gilbert Civil Rights Museum. Overall, Savannah was an intriguing, culturally rich and spooky experience for my electronic sensors.
