Abraham Lincoln's Assassination Dream (1865) Weeks before his death President Abraham Lincoln reportedly told close associates about a vivid dream in which he wandered the White House hearing mournful wails. Upon entering the East Room he saw a corpse surrounded by soldiers and weeping people. When asked who had died he was told the President had been assassinated by an assassin. The level of detail including the specific room and public grief matched reality after John Wilkes Booth shot him at Ford’s Theatre. While skeptics suggest Lincoln subconsciously anticipated danger due to wartime threats the precise alignment with actual events has made this one of history’s most cited precognitive dreams influencing both public belief and psychological study.
