The father worked as a gardener at Admiralty House.<br \/>SOUMIS<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even without visitors in the building, the Naval Museum of Halifax is never silent. More than 200 years old, Admiralty House creaks and groans from time to time, as old buildings do. It\u2019s easy to see how a small noise or sudden movement could play on the mind.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Could it be a ghost?\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe\u2019ve heard lots and lots of ghost stories,\u201d says Lisa McNiven, who works as an archivist at the museum.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sightings of a lady with white hair, or the sound of water running, is most likely connected to the story of Mary Gray, a servant who worked at Admiralty House in the mid-1800s, McNiven says.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe story that has been passed down is that late at night the lady of the house called for water. Mary was either the lady\u2019s maid or some other house servant and she went upstairs to deliver the water \u2014 it would have been in a bucket \u2014 and she fell down the stairs on her way back.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mary Gray died that night in 1858, and although the inscription on her grave has eroded, museum staff say her gravestone is in the old cemetery, the Royal Naval Burying Ground, tucked away at the bottom of Stadacona.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before COVID-19 safety precautions closed the museum to the public, a medium who visited the Naval Museum of Halifax as part of a paranormal investigation team estimated there were as many as 14 spirits in the house.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cPre-COVID we had a daycare visiting and one little guy \u2014 he would have been about four years old \u2014 asked why the lady in the mirror wasn&#8217;t talking to him,\u201d McNiven recalls, gesturing to a mirror in the front room. \u201cHe said she had long white hair and she was leaning out of the mirror and looking at him, but she wasn\u2019t saying anything.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jennifer Denty, museum director, has heard the stories too. Although she says she\u2019s never personally experienced anything more than a noise that turned out to be a loose gutter, reports of hearing or seeing \u201csomething\u201d are persistent, coming from past and present museum staff and volunteers, commissionaires and visitors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cBefore COVID we used to do events in the evenings so if someone was here late at night, closing up, that sometimes was when things would get reported,\u201d she says. \u201cIt can get a little creepy, I\u2019ll admit.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Construction of Admiralty House began in 1815 and continued through to 1819. The grand three-storey house served as the British Admiral\u2019s summer residence at what was then known as the Royal Navy\u2019s North American Station from 1819 until 1904.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While the Admiralty spent winters in the more temperate climate of Bermuda, the house was rarely empty as over the years various workers, and sometimes their families, would spend the winter months looking after the house.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One such family was the Lows, a husband and wife who lost four of their children in less than a week in late December 1884.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to McNiven, who has researched the family&#8217;s story, the father was the gardener and had been hired to keep the coal running in the winter. Six-year-old William died on Christmas Day, followed by Alice, aged four, on December 28 and three-year-old Samuel the following day. The youngest, Albert, died on December 31 at just 18 months of age.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe don\u2019t know for sure what they died of, but cholera was running through the Dockyard at that time so we assume that was what happened,\u201d says McNiven. \u201cThat poor woman losing her children\u2026 I believe that kind of trauma lingers on. It has to.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another incident involving a mother and child took place during the Halifax Explosion. \u201cThe mother was up in the attic, holding her baby and looking out one of the top windows,\u201d says McNiven as she climbs the stairs to the third-floor attic. \u201cShe was likely looking down toward the harbour to see what all the commotion was about when the explosion happened and the window blew in. Both she and the baby were killed.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7191\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7191\" style=\"width: 476px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7191\" src=\"https:\/\/tridentnewspaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Museum-ghosts-3-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"476\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tridentnewspaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Museum-ghosts-3-scaled.jpg 2114w, https:\/\/tridentnewspaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Museum-ghosts-3-248x300.jpg 248w, https:\/\/tridentnewspaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Museum-ghosts-3-846x1024.jpg 846w, https:\/\/tridentnewspaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Museum-ghosts-3-768x930.jpg 768w, https:\/\/tridentnewspaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Museum-ghosts-3-1268x1536.jpg 1268w, https:\/\/tridentnewspaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Museum-ghosts-3-1691x2048.jpg 1691w, https:\/\/tridentnewspaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Museum-ghosts-3-650x787.jpg 650w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 476px) 100vw, 476px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7191\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Museum staff often research graves and stories of people who lived in Admiralty House.<br \/>JOANIE VEITCH<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Working alone in the house one day, McNiven said she distinctly heard a door slam upstairs in the attic. It was loud and the noise reverberated down to where she was working on the second floor. She stopped to listen but it didn\u2019t happen again.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThere are no doors in the attic. There are different rooms with doorways\u2026 but no doors.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other reports include a young cadet who said she saw a man down on the lower level wearing an \u201cold-time\u201d suit. Like the young boy who saw the woman in the mirror, the cadet asked why the man wouldn\u2019t come out and talk.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cChildren seem to see the spectres, or whatever they are,\u201d says Denty. \u201cThey\u2019ll talk as though it\u2019s a real person they saw when there was no one there that anyone else saw.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And then there\u2019s the crypt. Formerly a cold storage area in the basement of the house, it has twice acted as a morgue \u2014 in the mid- to late 1800s when a magazine exploded and killed a number of people, and again following the Halifax Explosion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cPeople have said they heard voices down there. I\u2019ve never heard anything, but who knows?\u201d says McNiven.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although the museum remains closed to the general public at present, it is open to anyone who works on the base. Museum staff say they would be happy to arrange a tour and talk about the various \u201cghost stories\u201d of the house, or any other historical subject of interest.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For more information call 902-721-8250 or email: <\/span><a href=\"mailto:navalmuseumofhalifax@forces.gc.ca\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">navalmuseumofhalifax@forces.gc.ca<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From an article on Admiralty House in the Crowsnest magazine, April 1963<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cInside its book-lined walls today, library-quiet, the ghosts remain.
