    Fort Chaffee

    Fort SmithUnited States1941

    Fort Chaffee, located near Fort Smith, Arkansas, is a historic U.S. Army installation established in 1941 that played pivotal roles during World War II, the Cold War, and major international refugee resettlements. Famous as the base where Elvis Presley received his iconic Army haircut in 1958, the sprawling facility also housed German POWs, Vietnamese refugees, and Cuban evacuees. Now partially redeveloped as Chaffee Crossing, the installation's extensive abandoned sections—particularly the decaying 47th Field Hospital complex and wooden barracks—are renowned for intense paranormal reports, including shadow figures, disembodied marching, and phantom medical alarms.
