The Story
The Governor’s Café has an unusual pictorial ghost story: the pictures on its walls supposedly contain more inhabitants than first meet the eye. Delaware Haunted Houses says the paintings depict historic Dover buildings, with ghostly faces peering from their windows. That published tale gives the former café its place in Dover’s local haunting lore. Weak artwork-centered legend, not proof of an apparition. Former café identity retained; current business needs verification.
