USS Lexington
The retired US Naval vessel USS Lexington is most famous for the ghost of the engine room operator who was killed in battle. He has never harmed anyone and only makes his presence known when tourists enter the engine room; he gives guided tours of the room. Sometimes he becomes impatient, however, and slams doors and turns off lights.

I had the opportunity to go aboard the U.S.S. Lexington in 1986 while it was docked for restoration in Pensacola, FL. I did not see or hear any ghosts while visiting but, now that I have heard the stories, I would like to revisit it someday!

I served on the LEX from 1971-1975, and I can assure you that it is haunted- I experienced it myself, although I didn’t see anything-I sure felt the presence of something-

i went aboard the uss lexington with my airforce rotc class a couple of weeks ago and stayed the night. i now believe in ghosts because me and a couple of my friends have photos of ghosts in the engine room and the barber shop also in the little church area. i also heard screaming and whistling when i was alone down in the engine room.
