The Green Lady: A Ghost Story

In this episode of Katy’s Corner, I share one of my favorite haunted history stories — the legend of Charlotte de Brézé, better known as The Green Lady.

Charlotte was the illegitimate daughter of Charles VII of France and the famous royal mistress Agnès Sorel. Raised at the French court, she later married nobleman Jacques de Brézé and moved to the magnificent Château de Brissac.

According to legend, Charlotte never left the château. Dressed in green — her favorite color in life — she is said to wander the halls, chapel, and towers of Brissac. Guests and residents alike have reported hearing eerie cries or glimpsing her ghostly figure, earning her the nickname La Dame Verte — The Green Lady.

This episode explores the history behind the legend, the royal family drama surrounding Charlotte’s life, and the haunting that has lingered at the château for centuries. 👑👻
