The Juliette Low Birthplace

Now a National Historic Landmark, this Savannah house was the birthplace of Juliette Gordon Low, founder of the Girl Scouts, on October 31, 1860. Two of her ancestors are said to still linger there: her grandmother Sarah Gordon, whose spirit in an old-fashioned dress has been seen by daytime visitors, and her mother, Nellie Kinzie Gordon, whom staff say rearranges furniture, plays the piano, and slides down the banister after the museum closes for the night. Evening ghost tours cover the hauntings in detail; the museum's standard daytime tours focus on Juliette's history instead.
