The Ghost of Abraham Lincoln

With a 200-year-old building, you're bound to hear stories of strange happenings in the middle of the night, but when the building is the White House, the sightings often take on a more historical flavor. Many people believe the ghost of President Abraham Lincoln is still haunting the White House 150 years after his death. The New York Times' Peter Baker tells the story of Ronald Reagan's dog Rex who exhibited strange behavior in the Lincoln Bedroom. But was it really a ghost? "I think in some ways people might like the idea that Lincoln is still hanging around watching over us," Baker says.

Winston Churchill met Lincoln's ghost twice when he stayed in the bedroom that had once been Lincoln's office. He said that Mr.Lincoln was leaning against the mantlepiece and smiled at him. Could it be that he was reasuring Churchill? He said at no time did he feel alarmed and felt comforted.

I don't think I would have fainted. I actually think it would be kind of cool to see his ghost. Lincoln has always been my favorite.

Funny thing is when Churchill saw Lincoln, He said “Hi mr president” and Lincoln smiled softly, laughed and disappeared.

It is true. And I'll have great pleasure by trolling Trump in his sleep.

Reagan's dog is way more scary than Lincoln's ghost.
