I recently visited Fort Mc Henry National Park in Baltimore, Maryland. Fort McHenry is the fort that inspired Francis Scott Key to write the Star Spangled Banner, our National Anthem when he saw the giant American flag still flying after a long bombardment by the British Navy during the War of 1812. Fort Mc Henry is an incredible place, with the internal fort preserved for the most part as it was in 1812. All of the out buildings that were put up afterward have been razed, so the grounds that surround the fort are grassy areas that look out over the Patapsco River that flows into Chesapeake Bay. Water energy is of course abundant as the fort is on a peninsula.
When I was walking through the fort I had several experiences. This one in particular occurred when I went into "Barracks Number 2" near the front left side of the fort's entrance. Sometimes a ghost will make me feel the pain they experienced in death, and this was one of those times.
What's puzzling is what time period the ghost was from, because the Fort was always in use after 1812 and served as a hospital and a military training facility.
