Solomon’s Revenge How a Charleston Slave Buried 9 Masters Alive

Описание: Solomon Fairfax, Charleston slave revenge, buried alive true story, American history dark

Beneath the ancient oak trees of Charleston, South Carolina, lies one of the darkest and most disturbing stories in American history. Between 1851 and 1855, nine powerful plantation owners died under nearly identical and mysterious circumstances—sudden paralysis followed by death. For decades, Charleston’s elite refused to speak of it.

But in 1923, a shocking discovery changed everything.

During renovations at St. Michael’s Cemetery, workers uncovered evidence that these men were not victims of natural causes. Inside their coffins were deep scratch marks, twisted bodies, and undeniable signs of desperate struggle. They had been buried alive.

Hidden beneath a magnolia tree was a leather journal belonging to Solomon Fairfax, an enslaved healer trusted by Charleston’s most powerful families. Its pages revealed four years of calculated revenge—born from unimaginable loss after his wife and children were taken from him and burned alive.

This story exposes the terrifying reality beneath the myth of the “loyal slave” and challenges everything America once believed about slavery, obedience, and justice. Solomon’s revenge would not only haunt Charleston’s elite but also influence early forensic medicine and ignite uncomfortable questions about resistance, rage, and morality in America’s past.

Was Solomon Fairfax a monster…
or a man driven beyond the limits of human endurance?


This is not just a story about revenge.
It is a reminder that pain ignored does not disappear—it waits.
And sometimes, history buries its secrets… until someone is brave enough to uncover them.
