Washington Crossing Ghost Stories: Patriots Who Never Left


Listen Later

Episode 93: This week, the Slice of the Paranormal team celebrates 250th, by checking out the haunts of Washington Crossing, Pennsylvania. We explore the sites where George Washington crossed the Delaware River on Christmas night 1776, on his way to the Battle of Trenton. It's said Revolutionary War patriots still walk the shores of the river. Could the ghost be the dead who lie in unmarked graves on Bowman's Hill or the Thompson-Neely Farm. Are long dead patriots sending signals from the Washington Crossing Inn's attic window? Explore these mysteries with the team as we honor the history of our great nations founding. Maybe some ghosts are still crossing the Delaware River and its Ice filled waters…. Ever since that cold December night in 1776.
