The Life and Afterlife of Benjamin Franklin, Ep. 578

Posted on March 13, 2025 by History Goes Bump Posted in Haunted Person .

Benjamin Franklin was a little bit of everything: inventor, diplomat, statesman, author, publisher, a Founding Father and a bad boy. He helped guide America through the growing pains of becoming a constitutional republic guiding its own destiny separate from Great Britain. Philadelphia became his home and the caretaker of the cemetery where he was buried in that city once said, “If Ben Franklin haunts the city and the streets of Philadelphia, he haunts it with his personality and his invention.” And it might seem that he haunts a couple of places with his actual spirit as well. Join us for the history and hauntings of Benjamin Franklin. The Moment in Oddity features Pound Cake and This Month in History features a Robert Frost poem published.
