The story
After Blackbeard was killed in 1718, his head was displayed at the mouth of the Hampton River, an event marked here today. Local ghost tours have stopped at the point since at least the early 2000s, telling visitors that the pirate's spirit is still tied to the spot where his head was put on display.
