The Story

Fort Morgan's ghost stories describe strange sounds, drifting mist and dark shapes within the old fortification. One report concerns an unidentified man appearing after a visitor felt an intense sense of unease. The masonry walls and military spaces form the setting for these accounts, which are separate from the fort's documented coastal-defense history. Its substantial history, including coastal defense across several wars, should remain separate from the haunting claims.
