Hey. I have been to this island. When I went I didn’t know it was haunted or about the stories but I could definately feel some weird presence in this place. It is on an island off of Boston Harbor (you can take a boat there) and it has all the old dungeons where the prisoners were kept. My friends and I thought we heard a woman screaming but then just laughed it off because we were scared. It is a great place to go you can get right down in all the old caves and cells. I definately recommend the experience. Even if you don’t believe me!

Hmm, well…of my opinions about ghosts, You should try and go as late as possible because a lot of the rooms are lighted and at the same time a lot of the halls are completely pitch black. Very Interesting place I’ll say. It is a descently big Island and it’s beautiful to see the land itself. Good stuff

wow that is so creepy!!!!!!!!!!

The Lady in black fell in love with a confederate prisoner. When the war was over she made him promise to come back, he never did. She can still be seen walking on Georges Island looking towards the sea. Waiting for his return. Also there tunnels that run under the ocean from island to island!

i like
sausage
and books:]

I went as a 3ed grade field trip and there I was in front of the lady in black

I WENT 2 GEORGES ISLAND ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO AND I WENT IN 2 ONE OF THE CELLS AND ARCROSS THE BACK WALL THERE WAS THE WORD RIP ON THE WALL AND IT STARTED BEING CROSSED OUT AND THEN A PURPLE LIGHT SHOT ARCROSS THE ROOM AND WE TURNED AND WE SAW THE FIGURE OF THE LADY IN BLACK AGAINEST THE WALL ABOUT 3 FEET BESIDE US IT WAS THE MOST SKOOKEST THING THATS EVER HAPPEND 2 ME

I actually live in Hull, Mass and I can see Georges island. it was also said that because of the Lady in Black two guards in the prision went mad because they there dog went crazy, im assuming after seeing the lady in black, and u can still hear dogs barking and scratching the wall. it was also said that she snuck onto the island via boat from Hull where the elementary school is and people on the islands or boats and see her lurking underneath the school.(there is a big hill on the bottom is a railroad track thats where she was located.) Pretty Cool huh? Yah its a highlight of goin to Hull High School.

i grew up in boston me and my friends hooked school alot and go on our own field trips one day we ended up out on the island it was 1978 we had no knowledge of the ghosts there we saw a lady in black in a cell screaming and acting and looking out of her mind we stood there yelling and spitting at her we were big time punks we thought she was just an actor not until years after did we hear about the ghost stories and we still wonder was it her the ghost we saw

I live in Winthrop, and my 4th grade class went there on a field trip. At one point I swore I felt something touch my shoulder. But I turned around and there was nobody there. I never wanted to go back but in retrospect I kinda do now…

wow thats kindove creepy…but i want to go now…but yet at the same time i dont..

WOW THAT IS CREEPY I DEFINITELY WOULDNT GO THERE ALONE….I WILL DEFINITELY TAKE MY BOYFRIEND ALONG WITH ME WHEN I GO….YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT COULD HAPPEN AFTER THE LIGHTS ARE OFF……

I grew up in Quincy, MA (right outside Boston). I went there with a friend who belonged to a local Yacht Club in a boat parade. I think it was 1978 (we were about 11 or 12). We took a tour of Fort Warren and the true story was told to us. Indeed, there was a woman who dressed like a man/guard in order to get onto the island to rescue her lover/husband. When she was caught, she was hanged. Her only request was that she be hanged in a dress, as a woman. They located a black dress for her (property of the warden’s wife) and hung her in it. There have been many credible witnesses, including workers and visitors alike who have reported seeing her. I myself did not see her. But, before the tour or any knowledge of this “legend”, I thought it was the creepiest place I had EVER been. You can tour the dungeons and it is so dark inside the fort, even on the brightest summer day. The minute I walked in there, I couldn’t wait to leave. I have never been back since. I even just took my kids to Boston in the summer of ‘06 and we stayed right on Long Wharf where the boats go out to the islands. I wouldn’t take my children there and I am 38 now! If you are looking to get creeped out, this is the place to do it!

where is this located directions???

I live in Boston and every year I usually go to George’s Island with Family and Friends at least one time in the summer. I had no idea that the Ghost of the Lady in Black exist. Now I’m kind of creepy to go back and at the same time happy to now the story and look for adventure.

I went there last year before we moved here to Boston. I have a psychic gift. I saw a revolutionary ghost with one leg missing screaming for help. After that, I left the island. I didn’t want to run into other entities.

Tina,

It is an island near Boston. You have to take a boat behind the Marriott at Long Wharf. It is about a 10-15 ride.

I went there twice. Once alone with my dad and my friend. and just today actually! Last time I did, I heard noises. Today I saw some weird things, but no actuall ghost and no lady and black. But I do beleive she is there and I do beleive those other people’s witnesses cuz that place must be REALLY haunted cuz all the prisoners that died there. And i went on the haunted battle ship 139 and more haunted places. Im sort of a ghost hunter

Does anyone know how you can go on an investigation? Also, are you able to go to the prison at night?

We went into an unlit hallway today under the rampart on the south side of the fort today. We definitely heard something like heavy footsteps in front of us and took pictures that have freaky looking orbs in them… could be dust, who knows. I just know I am not going back there.
