Aquia Church in Stafford, Virginia is described as haunted by a ghostly woman who appears on the grounds, at the windows, and sometimes in the graveyard, along with reports of flickering red-and-orange lights, unexplained disembodied footsteps, screams, and even a visible skull or bloodstains on the floor. These phenomena are often attributed to the church's long and turbulent history, including a murder and Civil War events. Ghostly figures of a woman are seen roaming the grounds, staring from windows, and even floating over graves. One report describes eye contact with the apparition before it smiles and fades. A flickering red-and-orange light has been witnessed in the vestry. Disembodied footsteps echo through the building, sometimes accompanied by a struggle or a whistle from the belfry staircase. Screams and the sound of something dropping have also been heard near Witch's Pond. Some visitors have reported seeing what appears to be a skull through the church windows or noting bloodstains on the wooden floorboards. Blurry, transparent figures have been seen moving at night within the cemetery.
