Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. There have been several stories about ghosts of former Presidents revisiting the White House. However, the most common and popular is that of Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln's Ghost, or to others as The White House Ghost, is said to have haunted the White House since his death. It is widely believed that when he was president, Lincoln might have known of his assassination before he died. In one story, Lincoln had a dream that he heard wailing noises. He tried to find the noise, but couldn't. Lincoln then checked the East Room. There, he saw several people, who didn't pay any attention to Lincoln, around a corpse. He grabbed one sleeve of a soldier and asked who is dead. The soldier, replied sadly, "The president is dead." Disturbed by the dream, Lincoln told his friends and wife, Mary Todd, about it. Later that night Lincoln was shot in the back of the head by well-known actor John Wilkes Booth.
