Record summary

The Hermitage, Andrew Jackson’s former plantation home, has a long-running tradition that Jackson’s ghost or voice appears or is heard in the house, sometimes associated with his bedroom or the surrounding grounds. Some accounts connect the reports with visitors, staff, or descendants, while others treat them as elements of historic-house folklore. It matters for comparison because the apparition is tied to a documented historical figure, preserved architecture, and an institution that mediates memory. The precise origin of the reports, witness identities, and original documentation remain uncertain.
