Zak has officially announced the new Season of Ghost Adventure&#39;s to premiere on April 8th @ 9 P/E on the Travel channel! The new season will open up with Madame Tussads Wax Museum. This is directly from &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Ghost_Adventures_episodes#Season_4_.282010.E2.80.932011.29&quot;&gt;Wikipedia:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;Zak faces his greatest fear when he returns to his hometown of Las Vegas to investigate stories of ghosts walking the corridors of Madame Tussads Wax Museum.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgQUn1B-W4OS4ygd3PuTgY181X7ih7YYiowu07vawDnZGAm6qZq-OkY_0Ez8jrKyb4m8OLj0JcJ23SYSb_7aD0D855Zg__fKZvEXmwvL64wDlHUFYHc1bNnshoqQqoqoL6dbn-fpTgSIc1/s1600/Madame-Tussauds-1.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left:1em; margin-right:1em&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;241&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgQUn1B-W4OS4ygd3PuTgY181X7ih7YYiowu07vawDnZGAm6qZq-OkY_0Ez8jrKyb4m8OLj0JcJ23SYSb_7aD0D855Zg__fKZvEXmwvL64wDlHUFYHc1bNnshoqQqoqoL6dbn-fpTgSIc1/s320/Madame-Tussauds-1.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Be sure to tune in!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another BIG announcement is Zak Bagans and Billy Tolley will host a new show called, &quot;Paranormal Challenge&quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWF9OpM5Z6RPmiMay9usSzgSe-iNxNrTwqgqk_OdMsiBLVhdvi3qaP1iobKn63x_JIg_0bCA4PTWKK55FWacfHy19bApz1tOqub53FXQKegEVzRTFKbmVuMoyhWSEXOya-4HgJpsF8iAnQ/s1600/ishot-221-1.png&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left:1em; margin-right:1em&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;109&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWF9OpM5Z6RPmiMay9usSzgSe-iNxNrTwqgqk_OdMsiBLVhdvi3qaP1iobKn63x_JIg_0bCA4PTWKK55FWacfHy19bApz1tOqub53FXQKegEVzRTFKbmVuMoyhWSEXOya-4HgJpsF8iAnQ/s320/ishot-221-1.png&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Already announced, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;Paranormal Challenge has filmed at none other than Eastern State Penitentiary in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
THE TRAVEL CHANNEL was shooting at Eastern State Penitentiary late last week for a series called “Paranormal Challenge.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The show is hosted by Zak Bagans of “Ghost Adventures,” which has already featured the famous lock-up, once home to mobster Al Capone. Bagans has called Eastern State one of the most haunted buildings in the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The local visit is expected to be among the first few episodes of the show when the series premieres in June.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some groupies caught wind of the shoot and huddled outside, hoping to meet Bagans, who was gracious to his fans.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The paranormal investigator hopes to return to Eastern State in the fall for its annual Halloween- themed “Terror Behind the Walls” tour.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
- Added a lot of Ghost Adventure&#39;s pictures to the fan site in the &#39;Pictures&#39; section.&lt;br /&gt;
- Added a logo and link&amp;nbsp;in the &#39;About - Gear&#39; section to purchase some of the equipment GAC uses on their investigations.&lt;br /&gt;
- Added a new poll &quot;If you had a chance to investigate 1-on-1 with a member of the Ghost Adventure&#39;s Crew, who would it be?&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am not sure if this weeks episode at the Bonnie Ranch Spring&#39;s is the Season finale or not, but if it is, it has been an awesome Season of Ghost Adventure&#39;s! I can&#39;t wait until this Season becomes available to purchase on DVD. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here is a little history of this Friday&#39;s lockdown at Bonnie Springs Ranch from the official &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.bonniesprings.com/our-story.html&quot;&gt;site&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bonnie Springs Ranch was originally built in 1843 as a stopover for the wagon trains going to California down the Old Spanish Trail.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 1846, General Fremont, on his way to California, stopped at what is now Bonnie Springs Ranch to gear up for his trip through Death Valley. Since 1952, the ranch has been used as a tourist attraction. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Often called &quot;an oasis in the desert&quot;, where you can stop for a cool drink of spring water. Today the grounds are a delight for locals and tourists alike. There is a fine dinner house and a quaint cocktail lounge. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We have a wide variety of animals for you to see in our zoo. Both native and non-native, including Simba the Canadian Lynx and our beautiful wolves. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We have a large stable of horses for your riding pleasure, pony rides for the kids and an adorable motel with fireplace rooms and Jacuzzi tubs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
What a great episode with the Hollywood Ghost Hunters, Kane Hodder, Rick McCullum, and R.A. Mihailoff!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here&#39;s a little history of the Pico House Hotel via Wikipedia: &lt;br /&gt;
The Pico House is a historic building in Los Angeles, California, dating from its days as a small town in Southern California. Located on 430 North Main Street, it sits across the old Los Angeles Plaza from Olvera Street and El Pueblo de Los Angeles Historic Monument. Its geographic coordinates are 34°03′23.63″N 118°14′22.07″W﻿ / ﻿34.0565639°N 118.2394639°W﻿ / 34.0565639; -118.2394639.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pío Pico, a successful businessman who was the last Mexican Governor of Alta California, ordered construction of a luxury hotel in the growing town. The architect was Ezra F. Kysor, who also designed the Cathedral of Saint Vibiana, and it was constructed between 1869 and 1870. The resulting Italianate three story, 33-room hotel, dubbed Pico House (or Casa de Pico) was the most extravagant and lavish hotel in Southern California, and its opening was cause for much celebration. It had a total of nearly eighty rooms, large windows, a small interior court, and a grand staircase. In the days of the hotel&#39;s primacy the courtyard featured a fountain and an aviary of exotic birds. The structure forms three sides of a trapezoid of which the open end immediately abuts the adjacent Merced Theatre, thus forming the courtyard. The back of the hotel faces Sanchez Street, where the large carriage entrance can still be seen.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Its time in the spotlight did not last very long. By 1876 the Southern Pacific Railroad had linked the city with the rest of the country and more residents and businessman began pouring in. Pio Pico himself started having financial troubles, and lost the hotel to the San Francisco Savings and Loan Company. The business center of the city began to move south and, by 1900, the building began to decline. After decades as a shabby lodging house, it finally passed into the hands of the State of California in 1953, and it now belongs to the El Pueblo de Los Angeles State Historic Monument. Parts of this building were renovated in 1981 and 1992. The ground floor is occasionally used for exhibits and other events.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Pico House is currently listed as a California Historical Landmark (No. 159) and a National Historic Landmark as a part of the Los Angeles Plaza Historic District (NPS-72000231).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Pico House is featured prominently in the Star Trek: The Next Generation two part episode Time&#39;s Arrow, filling in as turn of the century San Francisco.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The back end of Pico House is also used in the hit TV show The Mentalist. It is used as the CBI HQ and is frequently shown during the show. Pico House was also used, in August 2009, as the shoot location for JLS&#39;s video for their single, Everybody In Love. On January 7, 2011, the building was featured on Travel Channel&#39;s Ghost Adventures with Kane Hodder, and Rick McCullum.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;﻿Zak, Nick and Aaron travel to Seattle to investigate an Irish pub that used to be a funeral home associated with foul play and corruption. Today, the building is haunted by spirits in search of justice. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;I am personally really excited for this episode because I live 1 hr away from Seattle and have been to Kell&#39;s with my wife and to the recent Darkness Radio Ghost Adventure&#39;s event, where we personally met Zak and Aaron. SOOOOOO looking forward to this one!!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
What a FREAKY episode at the Viscilla Axe House! The crew investigated an old crime site in Villisca, Iowa, where eight people were brutally bludgeoned to death. The Viscilla Axe House is a well known home for a gruesome murder.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.villiscaiowa.com/images/originalhouse.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;257&quot; n4=&quot;true&quot; src=&quot;http://www.villiscaiowa.com/images/originalhouse.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Almost 97 years ago, long before serial killers and mass murders had become a way of life, two adults and 6 children were found brutally murdered in their beds in the small mid-western town of Villisca, Iowa. During the weeks that followed, life in this small town changed drastically.&lt;br /&gt;
As residents of this small town reinforced locks, openly carried weapons and huddled together while sleeping, newspaper reporters and private detectives flooded the streets. Accusations, rumors and suspicion ran rampant among friends and families. Bloodhounds were brought in. Law enforcement agencies from neighboring counties and states joined forces. Hundreds of interviews filled thousands of pages. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;center&gt;And yet, the murders remained unsolved, the murderer unpunished.&lt;/center&gt;&lt;center&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/center&gt;In 1994, Darwin and Martha Linn of Corning, Iowa purchased the former home of murder victim J.B. Moore and his family. The house was returned to it&#39;s original condition at the time of the murders on June 10th, 1912. It was listed on the National Registrar of Historic Places and opened for tours. &lt;br /&gt;
Films and books on the murders have recently captured the interest of an audience who had never heard of this horrendous crime. Psychics claim they&#39;ve identified the murderer and history buffs continue collecting piles of documents they say point to the truth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In all honesty though, we will never really know what happened on that dark night inside the home of J.B. and Sarah Moore. The murderer or murderers were never caught and given the many years that have passed, their dark secret was obviously carried with them to their own graves.&lt;br /&gt;
For some, the speculation was almost too much to bear and in 1912, townspeople began to distinguish and identify themselves by who they believed committed the crime. Friendships became strained and in many cases, irretrievably broken. The town stood then and in many cases still stands divided.&lt;br /&gt;
I have visited the home, read the newspaper articles of 1912, pored over the grand jury testimonies and the coroners inquest. I have spent hours looking into the eyes of the victims in the few tattered photographs that remain. I have come, in a sense, to know the townspeople of Villisca in 1912. I share their frustration, their anger, their suspicions and their fear. But most of all, I share their pain.&lt;br /&gt;
The pain of the unknown. The pain of a terrible tragedy that forced neighbors to look with suspicion upon neighbors. The pain of the 20th century.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Originally, the construction of this website was simply a favor to a friend. Over the past several years, however, it has become a way of life. The Moores have become family. Once you&#39;ve entered this site and been drawn into this story, I can guarantee that it will become a part of your life. At first, you&#39;ll feel an insatiable need for information. Until this site went live, that was difficult if not impossible to find. Secondly, you&#39;ll find within yourself a desire to know the truth, to unmask the identify of the murder or murderers and see justice done. Finally, you&#39;ll feel the pull to the house. You won&#39;t be satisfied with anyone else&#39;s experiences there and you&#39;ll need to have your own. I know. I&#39;ve been in your shoes.&lt;br /&gt;
I can only hope that as you sift through the information I have compiled, that you will find the peace that ultimately comes with this story. According to Sarah Moore, &quot;we can heal and we can overcome&quot; ~ even a tragedy as gruesome as this. Read the documents, know the people, and if you must- play detective. But know that each lesson learned in Villisca is personal. Each person that visits this site or this home will come away with something that will change their lives. The murders will never be solved. The tragedies we&#39;ll face in our lives, however, can be. The work on this site is dedicated to the victims of the Villisca Axe Murders.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;center&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Dates: June 9th and 10th, 1912&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Lena and Ina Stillinger, the daughters of Joseph and Sara Stillinger, left their home for church early Sunday morning. They planned on having dinner with their grandmother after the morning service, spending the afternoon with her and then returning to her home to spend the night after the Children&#39;s Day exercises concluded. The girls, however, were invited by Katherine Moore to spend the night at the Moore home instead. Prior to leaving for the exercises, Mr. Moore placed a call to the Stillinger home to ask permission for the girls to stay overnight. Blanche, Lena and Ina&#39;s older sister, told Mr. Moore that her parents were both outdoors but she would pass the message along to them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Children&#39;s Day Program at the Presbyterian Church was an annual event and began at approximately 8:00 p.m on Sunday evening June 9th. According to witnesses, Sarah Moore coordinated the exercises. All of the Moore children as well as the Stillinger girls participated. Josiah Moore sat in the congregation. The program ended at 9:30 pm and the Moore family, along with the Stillinger sisters, walked home from the church. They entered their home sometime between 9:45 and 10:00 p.m.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;center&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/center&gt;The following morning, at approximately 5:00 a.m., Mary Peckham, the Moore&#39;s next door neighbor stepped into her yard to hang laundry. At approximately 7:00 am. she realized that not only had the Moore&#39;s not been outside nor the chores began, but that the house itself seemed unusually still. Between 7:00 and 8:00 a.m., Mary Peckham approached the house and knocked on the door. When she received no response, she attempted to open the door only to find it locked from the inside. After letting out the Moore&#39;s chickens, Mary placed a call to Josiah&#39;s brother, Ross Moore, setting into place one of the most mismanaged murder investigations to ever be undertaken. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;center&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Crime&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Based on the testimonies of Mary Peckham and those who saw the Moore&#39;s at the Children&#39;s Day Exercise, it is believed that sometime between midnight and 5:00 a.m., an unknown assailant entered the home of J.B. Moore and brutally murdered all occupants of the house with an axe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;center&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Victims&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Upon arriving at the home of his brother, Ross Moore attempted to look in a bedroom window and then knocked on the door and shouted, attempting to raise someone inside the house. When that failed, he produced his keys and found one that opened the door. Although Mrs. Peckham followed him onto the porch, she did not enter the parlor. Ross went no farther than the room off the parlor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When he opened the bedroom door, he saw two bodies on the bed and dark stains on the bedclothes. He returned immediately to the porch and told Mrs. Peckham to call the sheriff. The two bodies in the room downstairs were Lena Stillinger, age 12 and her sister Ina, age 8, houseguests of the Moore children. The remaining members of the Moore Family were found in the upstairs bedrooms by City Marshall Hank Horton who arrived shortly. Every person in the house had been brutally murdered, their skulls crushed as they slept. Josiah Moore, age 43, Sarah Montgomery Moore, age 39, Herman Moore, age 11, Katherine Moore, age 9, Boyd Moore, 7 and Paul Moore, 5 -as well as the Stillinger Sisters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;center&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Crime Scene&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Once the murderers were discovered, the news traveled quickly in the small town. As neighbors and curious onlookers converged on the house, law enforcement officials quickly lost control of the crime scene. It is said that up to a hundred people traipsed through the house gawking at the bodies before the Villisca National Guard finally arrived around noon to cordon off the area and secure the home. The only known facts regarding the scene of the crime were:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul id=&quot;content-ul&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;Eight people had been bludgeoned to death, presumably with an axe left at the crime scene. It appeared all had been asleep at the time of the murders.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Doctors estimated time of death as somewhere shortly after midnight.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Curtains were drawn on all of the windows in the house except two, which did not have curtains. Those windows were covered with clothing belonging to the Moore&#39;s.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;All of the victims faces were covered with the bedclothes &lt;strong&gt;after&lt;/strong&gt; they were killed.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A kerosene lamp was found at the foot of the bed of Josiah and Sarah. The chimney was off and the wick had been turned back. The chimney was found under the dresser.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A similar lamp was found at the foot of the bed of the Stillinger girls, the chimney was also off.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The axe was found in the room occupied by the Stillinger girls. It was bloody but an attempt had been made to wipe it off. The axe belonged to Josiah Moore.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li class=&quot;style18&quot;&gt;The ceilings in the parent&#39;s bedroom and the children&#39;s room showed gouge marks apparently made by the upswing of the axe.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A piece of a keychain was found on the floor in the downstairs bedroom.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A pan of bloody water was discovered on the kitchen table as well as a plate of uneaten food.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The doors were all locked.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The bodies of Lena and Ina Stillinger were found in the downstairs bedroom off the parlor. Ina was sleeping closest to the wall with Lena on her right side. A gray coat covered her face. Lena, according to the inquest testimony of Dr. F.S. Williams, &quot;lay as though she had kicked one foot out of her bed sideways, with one hand up under the pillow on her right side, half sideways, not clear over but just a little. Apparently she had been struck in the head and squirmed down in the bed, perhaps one-third of the way.&quot; Lena&#39;s nightgown was slid up and she was wearing no undergarments. There was a bloodstain on the inside of her right knee and what the doctors assumed was a defensive wound on her arm.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Dr. Linquist, the coroner, reported a slab of bacon on the floor in the downstairs bedroom lying near the axe. Weighing nearly 2 pounds, it was wrapped in what he though may be a dishtowel. A second slab of bacon about the same size was found in the icebox.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Linquist also made note of one of Sarah&#39;s shoes which he found on Josiah&#39;s side of the bed. The shoe was found on it&#39;s side, however it had blood inside as well as under it. It was Linquist&#39;s assumption that the shoe had been upright when Josiah was first struck and that blood ran off the bed into the shoe. He believed the killer later returned to the bed to inflict additional blows and subsequently knocked the shoe over.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;Had these murders been committed today, it is almost certain that law enforcement officials would have easily solved the crime and brought the murderer to justice. Almost 100 years later, however, the Villisca Axe Murders remain a mystery. The murder or murderers are probably long dead, their gruesome secret buried with them. In hindsight, it&#39;s easy to blame the officials at the time, for what could only be considered a gross mismanagement of what little evidence may have remained. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#39;s important, however, that we also realize that in 1912 - fingerprinting was a fairly new venture, and DNA testing unimaginable. Although a local druggist had the forethought to attempt to enter the crime scene with his camera, he was promptly thrown out. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is quite probable that even if the crime scene had been secure, the evidence would not have provided any real clues. There was no central database of fingerprints so even if any had been recovered, the murderer would have had to have been apprehended for a comparision. Granted, prints may have either convicted or cleared Kelly and Mansfield. Frank Jones, however, was suspected only of masterminding the plot, not actually committing the murders himself. Fingerprints would not have exonerated him.&lt;br /&gt;

All new Ghost Adventure&#39;s episode this Friday, 12/3, at 9:00 pm P/E! This looks like a great episode and can&#39;t wait to see what the guys caught here!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For thousands of years this area was very important as a source of Onondaga Flintstone. This stone was used by the Iroquoian people for tools and weapons. The French came into the Great Lakes region in the 1600&#39;s and built Fort Niagara, on Lake Ontario, as their primary post along the Niagara River.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the end of the Seven Years War (or French and Indian War) in 1763, all of New France was ceded to Great Britain. The British established control by occupying the French forts and constructing a line of communications along the Niagara River and Upper Great Lakes. Fort Erie was the first British fort to be constructed as part of this network. The original fort, built in 1764, was located on the river&#39;s edge below the present fort. For the next 50 years, Fort Erie served as a supply depot and a port for ships transporting merchandise, troops and passengers to the Upper Great Lakes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The fort first saw action as a supply base for British troops, Loyalist Rangers and Iroquois Warriors during the American Revolution. Continuous winter storms caused considerable damage to the little fort at the water&#39;s edge. In 1803, planning was authorized for a new Fort Erie on the heights behind the original post. The new fort was to be more formidable and constructed of the stone that was readily available in the area, Onondaga Flintstone. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;The War of 1812&lt;/b&gt; - This fort was unfinished when the United States declared war on June 18, 1812. The garrison of Fort Erie fought at the Battle of Frenchman&#39;s Creek against American attacks in November 1812. In 1813, the fort was held for a period by U.S. forces after being partially dismantled by the small garrison of British troops and Canadian militia as they withdrew from the fort. British reoccupation followed the American withdrawal from the area in December 1813 and attempts to rebuild the fort were begun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On July 3,1814 another American force landed nearby and captured Fort Erie again. The U.S. Army used the fort as a supply base and expanded its size. At the end of July, after the Battles of Chippawa and Lundy&#39;s Lane, the American army withdrew to Fort Erie. In the early hours of August 15,1814 the British launched a four pronged attack against the fortifications. A well-prepared American defence and an explosion in the North East Bastion destroyed the British chance for success with the loss over 1,000 men. A full scale siege set in and it was broken on September 17 when American troops sortied out of the fort to capture and wreck the British siege batteries.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shortly after the American sortie, the British lifted the siege lines and retired to positions to the north at Chippawa. After unsuccessful attacks at Cook&#39;s Mills, west of Chippawa, news reached the American forces that the eastern seaboard of the U.S. was under attack. On the 5th of November 1814, with winter approaching, the Americans destroyed the fort and withdrew to Buffalo, leaving Fort Erie the bloodiest battlefield in the history of Canada. The Treaty of Ghent was signed December 24, 1814, ending the War of 1812-1814.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;After 1815&lt;/b&gt; - Suspecting further attacks, the British continued to occupy the ruined fort until 1823. Some of the stones from the fort were then incorporated into the construction of St. Paul&#39;s Anglican Church, which stands today 2 miles (3 km) north of the fort on the Niagara Parkway. The Fort Erie area became significant as the major terminus in Canada for slaves using the Underground Railroad in the middle of the 1800&#39;s. With the arrival of trains a town began to grow north of the fort. In 1866, a Brigade of Fenians (Irish Republicans) used the ruins of the Old Fort as a base for their raid into Ontario. These raids hastened the move toward Confederation and Canada became a nation in 1867. Around the same time visitors to the ruins included the Prince of Wales and Mark Twain. As the 20th century approached, the Old Fort was used as a park and picnic area by local families.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 1937 reconstruction was begun, jointly sponsored by the Provincial and Federal governments and The Niagara Parks Commission. The fort was restored to the 1812-1814 period and officially reopened July 1, 1939. The fort and surrounding battlefield are owned and operated by The Niagara Parks Commission, a self-funded agency of the Ontario Provincial Government. After your visit, you can enjoy a delightful drive along the Niagara Parkway. The Parkway starts at Fort Erie and continues 56 km or 35 miles north to Lake Ontario; Sir Winston Churchill said it was &quot;the prettiest Sunday drive in the world&quot;. Today, step inside Old Fort Erie as the Garrison of British, Canadian and Iroquois forces prepare to defend this outpost in Upper Canada during the War of 1812.&lt;br /&gt;
