Activity itinerary

U.S. Capitol

  • 20m
You may have learned a pretty good bit about this place in your history class, but we are going to tell you what your teacher didn’t. This place is crawling with the restless dead. We’ve got everything from bloodstains on the staircase to the phantom of one infernal feline.

Folger Shakespeare Library

  • 20m
George Eberhart once said that there are two reasons a library is haunted. The first is that the library was the scene of a tragedy. The second is that the former caretakers, librarians, and benefactors of the library are too attached to their collections to leave. Here you will find out which of the two is the cause of the hauntings within this great library.
