The Story
HauntedPlaces.org gathers several barracks stories: a shadowy seated man, a general's apparition, and a sentry near the Powder Magazine. Other accounts describe lights operating alone and an unseen voice shouting a military dismissal in Building 29. These are grouped as one historic complex rather than counted building by building. Historical explanations and identities are folklore unless independently sourced.
