Description
From the Demon Cat that stalks the Washington crypt to the restless spirit of John Quincy Adams in Statuary Hall, it’s no wonder that in 1898 the Philadelphia Press declared the Capitol to be essentially the most thoroughly haunted building on the earth. Yet there are as many ghosts locally as there are beneath the dome. Local creator and guide Tim Krepp intrepidly takes on the most efficient-known haunted tales at the same time as also exploring the lesser-known specters. From the weeping lady of The Maples to Commodore Tingey, who still stands watch within the Navy Yard, to the handfuls of famous ghosts hosted by Congressional Cemetery, many former residents seem bound to their old home. Sign up for Krepp as he explores essentially the most historic and hair-raising haunts of the Hill.
