Lincoln’s Ghost — The White House Encounters

Late one night during the World War 2, Winston Churchill stepped out of a bath in the White House and claimed he was not alone. Standing by the fireplace was the ghost of Abraham Lincoln. It wasn't the first time his ghost had been seen. In this episode on Lincoln's ghost story, we look at the long and unsettling history behind Lincoln’s reported appearances in the White House, from the private grief that marked his years in office to the paranormal encounters described by presidents, staff and visiting leaders long after his death. #ghoststories #abrahamlincoln #ushistory Please Like and Subscribe!
