Ghost Hunters Tour Historic Fort Mifflin
By John McDevitt
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) - Philadelphia's historic Fort Mifflin, near Philadelphia International Airport, is believed by paranormal experts to be one of the most "haunted" places in the country.
So, it being almost Halloween, we had to check it out.
"Electronic voice phenomena" sessions were held in five so-called hotspots in the fort. Paranormal enthusiasts believe voices of spirits can be captured on a digital recording.

When played back, sometimes an unexplained voice appears, they say, like when this boy in casemate 5 asked, "Did you die in here?"
There was an unexplained voice that answered -- the words weren't clear, but it sounded like, "I think so."

A number of orbs or light anomalies were also captured by some members of the group.
