          6. The ghosts of Bald Head Island

          For centuries Bald Head Island was known as a haven for pirates like Stede Bonnet and Blackbeard, who favored its hard-to-navigate nooks and crannies and its lush maritime forests.

          The island is also home, some believe, to the mysterious disappearance of Theodosia Burr Alston in 1812.

          Theodosia was the daughter of Aaron Burr, the third vice president of the United States, and wife of Joseph Alston, South Carolina’s governor.

          In late December, she boarded a small pilot ship, The Patriot, in South Carolina, bound for New York to visit her father.

          But she and The Patriot never made it to New York; the ship was found drifting off Nags Head in the early part of 1813 without passengers or crew.

          There are many accounts as to the fate of Theodosia.

          Both the Outer Banks and Bald Head Island stake claim as her final resting place.

          It is believed by some that The Patriot was pillaged by pirates while off the coast of Nags Head.
