Foscue Plantation House was constructed in 1824 and is said to be haunted by the ghosts of slaves from the 1800s. According to reports, slaves were chained in the attic and their cries and moans are said to ring out at night. A legend about the staircase says that slaves’ blood appears on the stairs no matter how many times they are repainted.

  1. Was there pulled over but it was closed walked up anyway heard sounds of chains dragging thought it was the wind at first but it wasn’t windy

  2. I ride by this house once a week & always get a uneasy feeling. I love historical homes but I have no desire to explore this one. Not sure what it is but this house creeps me out!

    • Dear Ms. Betty! This was one of my family members and I do dialy FOWLKES/FOOKES/FOSQUE research. They all were Quakers in Third Haven Monthly Meeting in Talbot County, Easton, Maryland in early 1700’s. John Fooks married outside of the Quakers to Mary Welling and was disowned and so a bunch left Maryland and my FOWLKES landed on land on Brices Creek, southside. I have always contended that Fosque was orignially FOOKS or FOWLKES. Please email me at LMTHE1RN@aol.com. Kindest regards. Lucy Oakes

    • I am very willing to be a part of the investigating team. I’m not sure how to get in touch with you but I can look your name up

    I’m from out of town and my mom and I decided to go to Trenton to visit where my grandmother was born. A few hours later we
    Pulled up at Foscue plantation just to look at the house, and I took a few pictures, (it was closed I guess not a touring day) anyway I got a picture of a woman Reflection. Reflected off of the side window, like maybe she was in the yard. When I took the pictures there was NO ONE AROUND…
