Myrtle's plantation is an antebellum plantation in St. Francisville, Louisiana, near Baton Rouge. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the plantation is a bed and breakfast, and it offers historical and mystery tours. It is supposedly the most haunted location in the United States.

The Myrtles Plantation was built in 1796 by General David Bradford and called Laurel Grove.  He moved his wife Elizabeth and their five children to the plantation from Pennsylvania.  One of Mr. Bradford's law students, Clark Woodruff eventually married Mr. Bradford's daughter, Sara, in 1817.  After the death of David Bradford in 1808 , Clark and Sara Woodruff managed the plantation for Elizabeth Bradford. They had three children: Cornelia Gale, James, and Mary Octavia.

The most well known of the Myrtles ghosts is Chloe who was reportedly a slave owned by Clark and Sara Woodruff.  According to the legend, Chloe listening in at keyholes to learn news of Clark Woodruff's business dealings or for other purposes, was caught, either by Clark or Sara Woodruff and one of her ears was cut off. She wore a green turban to hide it.

After having her ear cut off, Chloe supposedly baked a birthday cake containing oleander leaves, which are poisonous.  According to the legends, her plan backfired. Only Sara and her two daughters ate the cake and  died from the poison. Chloe was then supposedly hanged by the other slaves, either as punishment or to escape punishment by Clark Woodruff for harboring her.
