The Story

HauntedPlaces.org retells a conversational ghost story from Steuben House: a man identified as Baron von Steuben allegedly sat with a visitor and asked how the Revolutionary War was progressing. On being told the war was long over, the bewildered figure disappeared. The tale is more specific than a generic haunted-house reputation. Source's elapsed-time arithmetic is inconsistent; no exact date or years-since-war claim is repeated.
