Haunted Military Places Where You're Likely To See A Ghost

Stories of spirits and unexplained phenomena have persisted on U.S. military bases for years.

                       Military Haunted Hotspots

 Unfortunately, most military holdings have been touched by the violence of war. With so much tragedy tied to the grounds, it’s no wonder that stories of hauntings have circulated these sites for decades. From phantom cats to headless torsos, these forts and bases seem to be full of bizarre otherworldly activity. Validated by staff, civilians, and the enlisted people serving on site, the following haunted hotspots definitely require a stiff spine to navigate. Here are 20 of the U.S. Military’s most haunted installations.

                  Fort Concho, San Angelo, Texas

 Despite closing in 1889, it seems the grounds of Fort Concho have not yet been abandoned. Several staff and visitors claim to have witnessed what they believed to be the spectral form of commander Ranald MacKenzie roaming the grounds near Officer’s row. Some have spotted the spirit of Edith Grierson, the daughter of a post commander who died of typhoid in the late 1870s. Yet others have remarked on the inexplicable smell of roses wafting through the dank hallways, the suspected handiwork of Lt. Francis Henry French. French served as the last officer before the fort closed, and was an avid gardener.
