From Abraham Lincoln’s midnight strolls to Dolley Madison’s floral intervention, the White House has hosted more than presidents—it’s hosted presences.
In this first part of our two-episode special, Amy invites you into America’s most elegant haunted house, where history refuses to move out. Hear the chilling (and surprisingly funny) stories of Abraham and Willie Lincoln, Andrew Jackson’s swearing fits, Abigail Adams’ eternal laundry day, Thomas Jefferson’s ghostly violin, and Dolley Madison’s garden patrol.
Featuring firsthand accounts from First Ladies, foreign dignitaries, and White House staff, this episode blends true history, eyewitness lore, and Strange History’s signature humor—plus a few delightfully fake sponsor reads.
