"Avast ye! 'Tis the Speaker's Cove, where the phantoms of the Republic be swappin' tall tales and hearty laughs!"

Arrr, matey! The ancient Capitol be a hauntin' ground o' spectral tales, cursed curses, an' ghostly shenanigans tucked away in the Congress' dark catacombs. Aye, it be as full o' spooks as a ship be o' rum on a stormy night!
Arrr, mateys! Hearken to the yarn spun 'bout spectral shenanigans of the U.S. Capitol, a grand ol' fortress that be older than a sea captain's seafarin' tales! Even Edgar Allan Poe spoke o' monsters within, but what o' the ghouls lurkin' in the very halls o' Congress, eh?The Capitol be a treasure trove of ghostly legends, especially around Halloween when landlubbers flock to the pop-up haunted houses. As we voyage through the Congressional catacombs, we be tellin' the tale of Rep. William Taulbee, who met a rather grisly fate at the hands of a reporter with a grudge. Aye, in 1890, Kincaid shot the poor sod, leavin' blood stains on the marble stairs that still haunt the place!
And if that ain't enough, there be whispers of a demon cat prowlin' about before calamities strike! Some say it leaves its mark in paw prints that only the keenest o' eyes might catch! The Capitol's filled with stories of departed souls, singin' at midnight and statues arguin’ like a crew in a tavern brawl!
So, me hearties, next time yer in D.C., keep yer wits about ye – for the ghosts of history be watchin' and sometimes, they might just trip ye up! Yarrr!
