The Capitol Building in Washington, D.C. is the heart of our American government. Both houses of Congress meet here to pass the laws of the land. The building is over 200 years old and has changed through the decades. While this just seems to be a standard government building, there is a lot of symbolism connected to the structure and its location. And there were rituals too. Could that be why this is one of the most haunted buildings in Washington, D.C.? Join us for the history and hauntings of the Capitol Building. The Moment in Oddity features Claire Sylvia, transplant recipient.
