Summary

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE!

Fort Mifflin in Philadelphia is a site of deep historical significance. As one of the few remaining intact Revolutionary War battlefields and the only fort in Philadelphia, its storied past spans several wars, from the American Revolution to the Civil War and even World War II. Commissioned in 1771, the fort was brutally attacked and captured by the British in 1777, resulting in hundreds of casualties. Its rich history and the many lives lost within its walls have contributed to its haunting reputation. Widely regarded as one of America's most haunted locations, Fort Mifflin’s paranormal activity is as fascinating as its past. In this episode, we’ll dive into the fort’s dark history and explore who might still roam its grounds, with insights from Beth Beatty, Executive Director of Fort Mifflin. This is Part Two of our conversation.
