Overview

The White House is the most prominent location in the United States for several reasons: political, historical, cultural, and beyond. Every day, current and past events from the White House are relayed worldwide. Despite all the news that comes from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue daily, one key aspect consistently goes overlooked: The White House is haunted.

A ghost tour in Washington DC cannot be at a better location, other than White House, Lafayette Square. There have been a few violent deaths in the vicinity of this ‘Tragedy Square.’

Our historian guides tell you stories and walk you through:

Murder of Philip Barton Key

Admiral Decatur’s Duel

Dolley Madison’s Haunted House

The Ghosts of the White House

Haunted Hay Adams Hotel

and so much more…
