The Haunting

Old Post Chapel is a historic military chapel on Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall beside Arlington National Cemetery, not a cemetery itself. The haunting reports connect its funeral role and former mourning room with voices, footsteps, doors opening, cabinets found open, and an apparition in the bridal room.

A Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall renovation story says the Old Post Chapel's story began in 1935, and HauntedPlaces notes that many Arlington National Cemetery burials have begun from the chapel. The chapel remains part of an active military installation, so access is restricted and ceremonial use takes priority. The former private mourning room is now described in ghost lore as the bridal room.

Reported activity: Reports mention disembodied voices, unexplained footsteps, locked doors opening, cabinets standing open, and a figure in the bridal room. Because the chapel is on a military base, visitors need proper authorization and should not treat it as an open ghost-hunting site.
