Nation's Capitol ... and at least twelve hauntings

The Capitol is known as the most haunted building in Washington. It is haunted by more than a dozen ghosts. It is also the city's logical center: the dome spire is the centerpoint of the city's quadrants (Northwest DC, Southeast, Southwest, Northeast), making the Capitol building the only building that exists in all four of the city's quadrants. Senate side is to the left (north); House of Representatives to the right (south), when viewing the building from its "front": i.e., its west-side that faces The Mall, The Washington Monument, The Reflecting Pool and The Lincoln Monument. One-block to the east is the Supreme Court.
