    Haunted Fort

    Fridays & Saturdays, Oct. 10 - Nov. 1

    Haunted Fort has established itself as one of the premier Halloween destinations in all of North Dakota. Set at the historic Fort Abraham Lincoln State Park, the #1 haunted attraction in the state leads spectators through the buildings of Fort Lincoln. They might catch a glimpse of a shadowy figure in the second story window of the Custer House, hear footsteps pacing around the sergeant's quarters in the barracks, or listen to the harrowing cries of weeping women along the boardwalk. It's all just enough to make you wonder, is Fort Lincoln really haunted?
