Sorrel-Weed House
The Sorrel Weed House, or the Francis Sorrel House, is a historic facility located in
Regency architecture in Savannah and was one of the first two homes in the state of Georgia to be made a state landmark in 1954.
The Sorrel Weed House has a reputation for being one of the most haunted buildings in Savannah. People claim to see figures in the windows and hear disembodied voices inside the house. The connecting carriage house behind the main house was said to have housed a female African-American slave who was murdered by a member of the family. Visitors can take tours of the house at night. The Sorrel Weed House is open for historic Savannah tours.
