LOCATION
Why is Rocky Hill Castle said to be haunted?
Rocky Hill Castle was a plantation house between Town Creek and Courtland, Alabama, prized for its striking mix of neoclassical and picturesque architecture. Neglected through much of the twentieth century, the house and its tower were demolished in the 1960s, but the site's reputation outlived the building itself. Rocky Hill Castle became the subject of numerous Alabama ghost stories, the best known being 'The Ghost of the Angry Architect,' published in Kathryn Tucker Windham and Margaret Gillis Figh's 1969 collection 13 Alabama Ghosts and Jeffrey. The tale tells of a builder whose spirit was said to linger over the unfinished details of his own design, restless long after the plantation itself had fallen silent. Though nothing remains standing today, the legend is still retold as one of the state's classic haunted-house stories.
