Fort Washita Historic Site & Museum

Fort Washita Historic Site in Durant is a former United States military post that now operates as a museum. The site is listed as a National Historic Landmark and is believed to be haunted by a ghost named Aunt Jane. The fort dates back to 1842 and was Aunt Jane's home until she was killed by thieves when she refused to tell them where her money was hidden. The thieves beheaded Aunt Jane and her remains were scattered and buried on Fort Washita.

Stories say that Aunt Jane's spirit possessed a child named Molly Stalcup who lived near the fort. Aunt Jane threatened to cut off all of the child’s hair and only fled after Molly's mother began praying. Visitors can tour the grounds of Fort Washita, including its original sandstone structures and officers’ quarters.
