With the Halloween season nearly upon us and the looming dark cloud of the finacal crisis on wall street. Many ghost fans are reminded of an American ghost story. It takes place in the United States Captial Building in Washington DC. This building is belived to be haunted by many ghosts, some former american leaders, dead soldgiers from the civil war, others are the former slaves that built the capital all thouse years ago. But one more dark and more omminus Phantasium is the deamonic black cat that haunts the captial.

DC as he is called is known to haunt the crypt of the routundra where our first president George Washington was planned to be buried. It was to have a hole on the floor so vistors can look down two floors at the grave of our first president. But because of his will George Washington was buried at Mount Vernon and his crypt is used to store Lincon's catafalque. This is the raised platform where the caskets of those who are given state funerals is displayed upon as they lay in state. It was first used for the funeral of Abraham Lincon in 1865. Recently for the funeral of former president Gerald Ford in 2007.

DC is seen by the staff that work or patrol in crypt in the United States captial at night as a kitten then as people approche. It's grows larger, it's eyes become a demonic red and it becomes a massive demon cat. Hence the name D.C. It then lunges in the air to pounce then suddenly disapears from sight.

According to the accounts this demonic cat has appeared for years And is seen as a bad omen. DC has appeared before a major national crisis. It was seen the day before the stock market crash in 1929 ushering in the great depression. And the day before John F Kennedy's assionation in Texas in 1963. DC has been also known have shown itself when the adminastration was changing. Other times appearing in the basement of the Whitehouse or the Washington Mall.

No one has reported that DC has made any recent appearances in the crypt. But one must wonder if DC has. Just no one wants to say that they saw the demonic cat for fear of being called crazy or loosing their secuirty clearance.
