Description:
Dive deep into one of America's darkest hidden horrors in this gripping true story reconstructed from lost journals, sealed court records, and forgotten letters. In August 1847, at Ryan's Mart in Charleston, South Carolina, planter Samuel Rutled bought a mysterious enslaved woman—listed only as "Number 39"—for just $5, the lowest bid ever. Described as "unmarketable" and horribly disfigured from a fire, she was meant for isolated field labor. But within months, she became the most desired woman in three counties, drawing secret visits from Charleston's elite men offering thousands to buy her. No one could agree on her appearance: some saw a monstrous scarred face, others the most beautiful woman alive.
As strange events unfold at Magnolia Bend Plantation—poisonings, miraculous healings, shifting perceptions, and buried family secrets—the truth emerges: was she a conjure woman with supernatural powers to alter how people see her (and their own guilt)? A brilliant free-born survivor manipulating perceptions to escape slavery? Or something far more unsettling?
This antebellum ghost story blurs history and horror, exposing the terrors of slavery, betrayal, and human nature in the Old South. Perfect for fans of unsolved mysteries, Southern Gothic tales, and real historical horrors like those on MrBallen or Bedtime Stories.
