For many years, residents of this mansion have reported a ghostly figure wandering the lower floor. The specter has also been seen walking the terrace on teh property. Investigators suspect the house was the scene of a murder many years ago, but the identity of the ghost has never been uncovered.
Buffalo Naval Park, Buffalo, New York
The USS Sullivan in this naval dry dock is haunted. The World War II battle ship is named for the 5 Sullivan brothers, who died together when their light cruiser was torpedoed in 1942. When the ship named for them was mothballed, the 5 brothers started to haunt it. Workers & guards have encountered their restless spirits on numberous occasions, especially on Friday the 13th. Sometimes they hear the sounds of a ghostly craps game or a disembodied voice whispering "Hey you!" 5 luminous forms have been seen floating down passageways & weird electrical phenomena still occur on the floating iron hulk. In 1993, a guard reported encountering the ghastly ghost of George Sullivan, the oldest Sullivan brother. His face & clothes were burned, & he was walking on air, not touching the deck.
