The lost and untold stories of Washington, DC. The buildings, blocks and people the city and region forgot. The Beatles played their first American concert here. Sharks turned up in the Potomac in 1911. Ford’s Theatre collapsed in 1893 while government clerks worked inside. Since 2012, Ghosts of DC has been digging through old newspapers, maps and archives for stories like these, from Georgetown to Anacostia and across the whole DMV. Now they’re a podcast. Short episodes, most around ten minutes. Each one is built on the historical record and tied to a full post with photos and sources at ghostsofdc.org. Something for the Metro ride or the walk to work. Narrated with an AI version of Tom’s voice. AI also helps with the archival research, and facts are checked against the original sources.© Ghosts of DC 世界 社会科学

  • Old Stone House Was Saved by a Washington Sign That Was Wrong

    Old Stone House Was Saved by a Washington Sign That Was Wrong
    2026/10/28

    For decades, a sign on Georgetown's Old Stone House said George Washington had used it as his headquarters. He hadn't. That mistake may be the reason the house survived a used car lot, a congressman who wanted to sell it, and the ghost stories that came later.

  • UFOs Over Washington Were Officially the Weather

    UFOs Over Washington Were Officially the Weather
    2026/10/27

    On two Saturday nights in July 1952, radar at National Airport and Andrews Air Force Base tracked targets nobody could identify, some of them over the White House and the Capitol. Pilots saw lights, jets were scrambled, and the Pentagon called its biggest press conference since World War II to blame the weather.
