The Forbidden Love of Annabel Lee

For decades, visitors to Charleston, SC's Unitarian Church Cemetery have claimed to encounter the ghostly figure of a beautiful woman, who appears to wander the overgrown graveyard in mourning for a lost love. However, local legend weaves a unique narrative: this is not just an ordinary heartbroken soul; she is none other than the infamous Annabelle Lee, the very muse of Edgar Allan Poe's renowned poem, which was published just days after his passing. As the story goes, their fateful encounter took place during a lesser-known and mysterious chapter of the "The Fall of the House of Usher" author’s life, when he was a young man enlisted in the United States Army and stationed at Fort Moultrie, overlooking Charleston Harbor. Join us on this week’s episode of Southern Gothic as we explore the haunted history behind this unique graveyard and the tragic love story that purportedly inspired one of America’s greatest literary figures. Additional voiceovers on this week's episode were performed by Forrest Burgess of Astonishing Legends, Gavin Whitehead of The Art of Crime, and Jen Flanders of Our True Crime Podcast. If you're in Charleston, SC then be sure to book a tour with Mike Brown of Pleasing Terrors & tell him we sent you!
