Rose Hall Great House
Visit the Rose Hall Great House, built in the 1770's, and restored in the 1960's, it is mostly famous for the story of its mistress Annie Palmer, who arrived there in 1820 and was widely feared as a black magician. It is also rumoured that she dispatched three husbands (by poison, stabbing, pouring boiling oil into their ears, and by strangling) and many lovers, including slaves, whom she simply killed when she was bored of them. Legend has it that she was eventually murdered in her bed by a slave, however there is no historical evidence to substantiate this tale.
