Old Fort House Museum

The Story

Staff and other visitors report a Revolutionary War soldier on the Old Fort House's upper floor. The Trail also says visitors have captured images they interpret as spectral residents while touring the house. Its ghost programs explore these accounts among rooms used by successive generations of occupants since the eighteenth century.
