Washington DC’s Haunted History

Formerly known simply as the District of Columbia, the United States capital is rife with a political and haunting history. It was named after George Washington himself, the first President of the United States, and Columbia, the female personification of the country. It has existed as the seat of the US federal government since its founding, and as such, remains a world political capital. 

In 2016 alone, Washington DC saw some 20 million visitors. It is one of the most frequently visited cities in the United States. But how many tourists realize how many haunted corners of the capital there are? 

With our ghost tour, you can be among the first to look beyond the shiny veneer of Washington. First founded as the national capital back in 1791, the city is steeped in history and intrigue, just waiting for you to uncover it.
