African Burying Ground Memorial
The burial ground is said to be the largest of its kind in the United states and it’s believed that over 200 people from the African American community were buried here.
2
John Paul Jones House, part of the Portsmouth Historical Society
Originally built in 1758 the old John Paul Jones house holds more ghosts than a than a Maine boat holds lobsters. Some say old John Paul Jones lingers in the room he once slept. Others have seen an angry spirit opening cabinets and slamming doors.
3
The Music Hall
Over the past century world renowned acts have graced its halls including the magician Harry Houdini, gun swinging Buffalo Bill Cody and that clever fella Mark Twain. The shows were so good that the ghosts decided to stick around.

The story’s were great but only 3 of my 8 friends could download the tour. So trying to listen was tough to hear with street noise.
