Betsy Ross House ghost claims

The Betsy Ross House, presented as the 18th-century home of seamstress Betsy Ross, is the subject of local claims of ghostly sightings and unexplained noises attributed by some visitors and guides to Ross or former occupants. These reports appear in oral histories and city ghost-tour narratives and have been part of public programming about the site. Historians and the museum's curators dispute definitive supernatural explanations and present the accounts as part of local folklore.
