Fort Revere

Fort Revere stands on Telegraph Hill in Hull, where defenses have been built since the Revolution and the remains of the fort and its observation tower now sit in a public park. Local lore says the hill was used in 1778 to isolate French soldiers sick with smallpox, and some people connect the park's reported activity with them. Visitors describe whispering and noises, shadows in the fort's doorways, and a sense of unease around the old rooms and stairs.
