    The Rhett House
    Aug 28 2024
    So on the OTHER end of Craven street… That’s right, not the end where The Castle resides, but the end of the street where it meets Church Street in downtown Beaufort. Past the rows of centuries-old homes where a recent mayor of Beaufort - who is not, in fact, a ghost - lived. Past the Arsenal and the Harriet Tubman statue and the Robert Smalls bust. Past the law firm where a former SC Lieutenant governor practiced alongside a current state senator. We’re talking about the penultimate block on that street - the next to last - the landing place of the Rhett House Inn, built circa 1820. And while the current owners of the Inn, renovated and opened in 1987, definitely do their best to provide southern hospitality in a historic environment…much like their friends at The Castle on the other end of the long street, they might have inherited a guest who never checked out… This is Buried Under Beaufort: The Rhett House Spirit.

    The Land's End Light
    Jul 17 2024
    It’s the 1980s and you’re a teenager looking to take your girlfriend around town for a date. You get in your DeLorean DMC-12, head to TCBY, pick up a couple of milkshakes and drive out to … well where else but an old Spanish-American War fort that frankly looks like the inside of a spaceship and is known for never having fired a single shot. And what are you doing there? Well you’re looking for an orb of light said to be the ghost of a US Soldier. But you see this story isn’t just about a ghost. It’s about an incident that has its fingers in a lovers’ quarrel, race relations, illegal moonshine and a court-martial. This is episode 2 of Buried Under Beaufort: The Land’s End Light!
