No heads, no hands
One of the most famous stories from the Fort is a century-old tale of two American soldiers who died during the British invasion. Over the last hundred years many have claimed to have seen the men walking the grounds of the battlefield at night, one with no head and the other with no hands.
Captain Kingsley’s haunted bed
While bedridden with a myriad health problems, Captain Kingsley endured months of severe fevers, hallucinations and even mercury poisoning. After his death, many claimed to see his ghost in the officers’ quarters, laying in the very bed where he passed away. Museum staff have reported finding the sheets strewn about and hearing footsteps, while others have seen a slight shift in windows and doors without ever being touched.
