| This video is a solid Yankee value, with stories about some
dozen lighthouses and their ghosts. Seguin Island Station, the foggiest location of all
coastal stations, where a keeper axed the piano, his wife, and then himself, when the wife
wouldn’t stop playing the same tune over and over. In addition to more standard
manifestations, on quiet nights, you can hear the keeper’s wife playing her
monotonous tune. Owl’s Head Light, where size-10 bootprints are found on the
boardwalk in all kinds of weather and the brass is mysteriously polished. The notorious
Isles of Shoals station, haunted by at least three female ghosts: the lady in white, a
wife of Blackbeard the pirate, who left her here to starve; Betty Moody and her child,
whose traumatic flight from hostile Indians is re-enacted in Betty Moody’s Cave; and
a woman’s muffled, crying voice, which is heard just before a big storm hits. |
