New England's rugged and treacherous coastline provides the perfect backdrop for revealing captivating stories, mysterious legends, and folklore connected to many of its beacons.

Credible witnesses have reported a range of ghostly encounters at or near these lighthouses, including the spirits of devoted keepers who refuse to leave, phantom ghost ships, victims of foul play, or those who met their fate in nearby shipwrecks, and restless souls in search of peace. These tales, along with photographs of each lighthouse for reference, highlight historical events that enhance the charm of these beacons. Immerse yourself in the stories linked to these iconic landmarks, where maritime history intertwines with the supernatural.
