Itinerary
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.
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.

About Washington DC
Washington, DC is the US capital, a planned city on the Potomac, with a National Mall of monuments and museums and cherry trees in spring.
Washington was planned as a capital in the 1790s, with broad avenues radiating from the Capitol. The National Mall stretches from the Capitol to the Lincoln Memorial, past the Washington Monument and the Reflecting Pool. Memorials to Jefferson, Franklin Roosevelt and Martin Luther King Jr stand around the Tidal Basin, where cherry trees bloom in late March or early April. The White House stands just north of the Mall.
