A Haunted Walking Tour of Charlotte Amalie

Overview

One barefoot. One hoofprint.
And the sound of her dragging cloak still haunts these streets.
If you ever pass Fort Christian after dark and hear soft footsteps behind you… stop.
Not to turn around.
Not to speak.
Just stop.

Because if it’s her, you’ll want to be very, very still.

Some call her La Diablesse. Others know her as the cow-foot woman.
Draped in colonial silks and hiding her face beneath a wide-brimmed hat, she walks only when the air is heavy and the night holds its breath.
Some say she died in childbirth. Others claim she was cursed by a jealous lover. But all agree on one chilling detail, she walks with one human foot and one cloven hoof.

The brave… or the unlucky… swear they’ve heard her whisper their name, only to turn and find no one there, except a single hoofprint pressed into damp stone.

One local family tells of a young girl who found wet footprints circling her porch after a rainstorm… one human, one hoof.
When she told her grandmother, the old woman simply nodded.

“Oh. She just needed shelter. You didn’t bother her, so she won’t bother you.”

Join us as we explore the haunted heart of Charlotte Amalie, where ghost stories aren’t just folklore, they’re family history.
Hear tales of jumbies and duppies, walk the shadowed streets of the Virgin Islands’ oldest city, and keep your eyes on the ground… just in case.

Because if you see two footprints behind you—
make sure they’re both human.

Are you brave enough to walk her path?
