Cliveden - Benjamin Chew House
Philadelphia, PA 19144
This historic mansion in Germantown has seen some of the bloodiest battles in history. This was the grounds of the Battle of Germantown that took place in 1777 where many were killed. The home was built from 1763 to 1767 for Benjamin Chew. The Chew family continued to live in the home for several generations, until 1972. It is now said to be haunted with several spirits.
Considering the number of soldiers who died here, many believe the site is home to many of their spirits, including that of a headless elderly woman in search of her head. It is said that she lost her head when a soldier severed it.

Reviews
Ghosts R nothing but (BS) I have been to several so called haunted places & it's a big nothing.
I have been to Gettysburg several, never saw or experienced anything.
Been to several covered bridges that R suppose to be haunted.
Been to The Keith House on County Line Road near the Willow Grove Air Base & that too is a nothing.
Been to William Penns Home in Tully Town-nothing
Far as I'm concerned Ghost Haunting-Hunting-Walking nis the biggest waste of time there is.
Now, out in Gettysburg, Pa there is a Ghost Walk
the biggest waste of money & time there ever was.
These ghost hunting companies R full of (BS) be
prepared to be ripped off because that's all that it is.
