The United States Capitol in Washington, D.C., is among the most architecturally impressive and symbolically important buildings in the world. It has housed the meeting chambers of the Senate and the House of Representatives for almost two centuries. Begun in 1793, the Capitol has been built, burnt, rebuilt, extended, and restored; today, it stands as a monument not only to its builders but also to the American people and their government. It is also one of the most haunted buildings in the United States.
National Statuary Hall: Late at night a guard reported that in the hall filled with statues of presidents and Congressmen the statues came to life and moved around the room.
Basement: In the basement there is a cat every time it has been seen a national disaster occurs. For example a guard spotted the cat in the late 30's and a week later the stock market crashed. It was also seen before President Kennedy's assassination.
Rotunda: Worker killed there is seen floating around carrying a tray. Sometimes you can see the spirit of a Civil War Soldier run through the Rotunda when it is very crowded. The Capitol Building was used as a Barracks and hospital during the Civil War.
Senate: A worker that was sealed alive in a wall during the construction of the building is seen.
