The tour led along a narrow passage to the side of the pool, which though empty, was incredibly deep. As we passed by, I saw the black figure of a woman glide under the water and rise from the pool, on the side where we stood. There wasnt a ladder there, though she ascended the side of the pool as if there was. Around her was a shadowy grey blur, and she was very upset, crying, and trembling. I felt that she died there, and she stopped at the end of the line of guests, and spoke to me. Her mouth moved, though I couldnt hear her. Keep in mind, I was fifteen years old. I was so frightened that I closed my eyes until the group moved on.
Others have noted similar experiences in the pool, including feeling overwhelmed by the spirit of someone who drowned there, hearing voices, and empathic past life recall.
I couldnt get out of that place fast enough.
Creepy Biltmore pool
Stories persist of phantoms in the pool, accompanied by splashing water and voices
all the while the pool remains empty.
another view of that pool shows the ropes on the side with what looked like nooses.
