Fort Mifflin, scheduled again in October and November
Fort Mifflin, also known as Mud Island Fort, was commissioned in 1771 and sits on Mud or Deep Water Island on the Delaware River in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. During the American Revolutionary War, the fort was a centerpiece of the British conquest of Philadelphia. Known as "The Fort that Saved America", Taps (Ghost Hunters)
investigated the fort during season 4. One of our more interesting and exciting investigations, SVPS came home with many personal experiences and evidence. We truly believe this place to be haunted, very haunted.
Now SVPS will investigate this remarkable fort not once but twice within the space of 5 weeks. Investigations are set for early October and November and we are very eager to test out some of our newest equipment additons such as the RT-EVP Recorder as well as many new geophones.
Candy Woodruff and Marty Seibel pose with Fort Mifflin caretaker Wayne Irby just inside the fort. Wayne was featured on the recent investigation of Fort Mifflin by Taps (Ghosthunters) on the sci-fi channel.
