Not just a slave plantation but the home of Anta Kingsley, the first free black in the Florida territory.

Doesn't Anna still haunt the plantation till this day? And also one of the former male slaves that was hung and kill 3 women brutally is rumored to still haunt women that ventured there at night. Is that true?

Yes but the first free blacks made up the city of Eatonville Fl near Orlando

Yes indeed...slave quarters and all. Very surreal as an African American.

Yes it was. It is one of the few Slave Plantations that actually still have slave cabins intact.

Yes, but history has it that the owner did treat them with humanity though they were Enslaved he understood how important it was to treat human beings with some dignity, this is the only reason why I would consider visiting!
