Fort Mifflin
What people are saying
A bit of a hidden gem for Philadelphia. Rich in history and a nice exploration into the revolutionary war. The grounds are well maintained and offer a nice experience for military and general history buffs. Went during a "paranormal" investigation. Doors opened at 1830 and wrapped up 0000. There were a fair amount of people present but nothing overwhelming. You were allowed free reign over most of the fort to explore and investigate as you see fit. Overall was a fun experience, and the mood was set under a blanket of a clear night sky. Made some of the tunnels and underground locations a bit more spookier. Though I will admit, the only thing that seems to haunt this place is the power of suggestion. If you're into the paranormal, it's worth while. And if you're on the skeptic side, like myself, you'll probably still have a blast exploring and spectating the shenanigans.
Wow very cool. I lived in philadelphia almost my entire life and never knew this was practically off the highway. I learned so much, and it was fascinating to see everything this place has to offer. They hold very cool events and I would highly recommend a visit. The people there are very pleasant and passionate about what they do.
Very cool historical place and was reported it was haunted. Great place to take the children and historical buffs .
Very cool, lots of history but some of the buildings were closed and the plaques were difficult to read. Very nice people running it and shared some of their paranormal experiences with us.
My old paranormal team did an overnight investigation on Friday July 7, 2023. We arrived at 6:30pm and we had the Fort to ourselves until 8am the next morning. Greg, who is in charge, took us on a tour and gave an amazing amount of information on the history of Fort Mifflin. Greg has so much information of the history of all the buildings and of the events that have occurred in the past along with the people. I would recommend a visit to Fort Mifflin just for the historical information and the part that Fort Mifflin has played all the way back to the Revolutionary War. I am not sure if there is a cost to tour the Fort for the history but there is a number you can call and they would be happy to tell you what you need to know. If I find out any of that information, I will edit/update this review. On behalf of being an investigator, Fort Mifflin did not disappoint us at all. I don't want to spoil the film that will be put out on our YouTube channel plus we have a lot of film, photographs and audio to go through. Therefore, I don't even know yet all that may have been captured due to the amount of equipment our team uses. If you are interested in getting a look at Fort Mifflin, not just for the paranormal aspect but for the beauty of the buildings and the scenic view. We are devoted to showing the real, raw footage that we capture. We vowed to always show what we got and let you decide for yourself. If you do make a trip to Fort Mifflin, tell Greg hello from Tara and just enjoy the tour and scenic views. They even have a wedding coming up!!! Remember the name Greg, he is a walking, talking encyclopedia of knowledge and it was incredible to learn so much history, right in our own backyard 😊. Before I finish, I just want to thank Greg again for being the best host at Fort Mifflin. BTW, there is a beautiful area with picnic tables so it is a great place to take the family. Look for the new investigation of Fort Mifflin so don't miss out on not only the paranormal but the historic value of this place.👻😈👻👿
