I cannot imagine how terrifying it would be to just see a historical figure that died a long time ago
I think my favorite White House ghost story is where in 1942, Queen Wilhelmina of the Netherlands was visiting President Roosevelt and she spent the night in the Lincoln bedroom. Late at night, she heard a knock at the door and when she went to open it, there stood Abraham Lincoln and she fainted.

imagine seeing a 6’4 ghost
My favorite White House ghost story is Winston Churchill's. Apparently late one night after he had gotten out of the bathtub, he walked into his room naked with a cigar in his mouth and saw Lincoln leaning against a nearby fireplace. Churchill then took the cigar from his mouth and proceeded to tell Lincoln's ghost, "Good evening, Mr. President. You seem to have me at a disadvantage." Churchill then said Lincoln smiled softly, as if to laugh, then vanished.

then Churchill ran naked down the hallway to where Roosevelt was because he was so frightened.

in the late 1940's it was gutted and rebuilt. Before that it was said to be extremely haunted. After all the insides were replaced, much less so.

Yeah the ghost were pissed about the condition of the house, once fixed up, they were satisfied.
And how exactly can people just assume that it is indeed Andrew Jackson laughing and swearing or that it is Thomas Jefferson playing the violin?!

They should do a ghost hunt here
Let's ask the Trump family about all this! I'm sure they have seen or heard something, they've been living in the White House for 2 years now.
I'll gladly stay there in hopes of seeing our great Pres. Lincoln!!

Strange how they are able to identify the ghost in each case.

With all due respect, if I were to see the ghost of President Lincoln, I would be terrified. He looks scary in that picture, so imagine what he would look like as a ghost😱👻🙁
Well the other presidents saw Lincoln in the hallway
I love Abe 🖤💙🖤

Is it haunted? It matters who is in office.
Trump be like: OMG OMG MY FAVORITE PRESIDENT ANDREW JACKSON once he hears that
if i was a ghost, the #1 place i would want to haunt is the white house
I don’t understand, why everyone is making so big show around it. That building is old as f, of course it has to have spirits of previous owners. I’ve worked in museum 4 years ago, and we asked the director, what’s up on it. This old man was the dirrector of that museum for several decades, and he was verry well known by peoples, and employees of other museum, because he bring that place back to it’s previous glorry and fame, he created event, which is now known, and respected by a peoples not only from Slovakia, where I live, but also visitors from other European countries comming back to enjoy this event. And he also remembers earlyer times, when there wasn’t cameras, and all the safety systems, so he sometimes stayed there, and guarded the place trough the nights, so he told us yes, of course this place has it’s own spirits wandering arround the hallways, stairs, amd other rooms. Necause that building was built in 17’th century, maybe even earlyer, so naturaly it has to have it’s ghosts, which are connected to that house. That’s normal, and it does not mean, it is hounted. Just respect them, and respect the reality of it. And by the way, he wasn’t only one, who told me, it’s true. Lots of ex-employees told me. J
I wonder if this is the reason y trump opted not to stay there...
Yes it is hantuded because their a ghost in Lincolns bed So GET IN TO IT

Cool. Too bad Obama didn't see any of them. I would've liked to see him run out of the White House screaming, and I doubt Lincoln would be very happy with him after what he's done to our country. He almost destroyed it.
