Description

In a city famed for its grand antebellum mansions, Natchez’s oldest building feels like it belongs to another world entirely. Rough-hewn timbers, crooked shutters, and centuries of whispers cling to the walls of King’s Tavern, where legend says a young woman named Madeline met a grim fate at the hands of jealousy—and where, decades later, workers unearthed something chilling behind a fireplace: bones and a jeweled dagger.


Whether the story is truth or just another layer of Natchez folklore, one thing’s certain—something in those walls refuses to rest.
