Aiken-Rhett HouseAt this gorgeous single-family super mansion, the parties were to die for, literally. You will see slave dungeons, the doorway to the prized slave. Original Slave Auction Block where slaves were sold while they stood like a trophy with pig fat on their skin to shine them up like a golden award, the Oscars. You will see breathing holes so the slave would have barely any air to breathe. Whistle while you work the slave walk as they cook the food in the slave cabin, you will find the kitchen house. The slave must whistle so the Master knows where the slave is and that his food is safe from harm. You will see hanging trees for the wealthy lynching picnic parties to show off your wealth. Haint blue you will find on doors and ceilings to scare off the boo hags that ride you in your sleep at night, so that you cannot move or speak or cry for help. You will be breeding houses where the slaves were forced to reproduce. (Tour outside the museum only).
