Show Notes

Fort McHenry sits in Baltimore's harbor and is probably best known as the site where America's National Anthem was penned during the War of 1812. The Battle of Baltimore was fought here with a relentless attack bearing down on the fort from the British. The assault was so harrowing, it's understandable how Francis Scott Key was inspired to write his poem. Today, spirits still linger from that era. Join us for the history and hauntings of Fort McHenry. The Moment in Oddity features Veronica Lake's War Factory Hairstyle and This Month in History features Baby Lindbergh's kidnapping and murder.
