Lighthouses are some of the oldest structures in America. They are beautiful. They are magical. Some of them are haunted.
Some are haunted by their dedicated lighthouse keepers who refused to leave, even at their own peril. Standing guard at their post until their last breath.
Some are haunted by the souls of those lost at sea in the treacherous waters which the lighthouses are charged with overlooking. Raging storms have claimed thousands of lives throughout the centuries.
Whatever the story, these magnificent structures need to enjoyed; their histories preserved as well as their foundations.
If you have the opportunity, I highly recommend visiting one of the beautiful lighthouses that are located all across our nation’s coastal waters. I’ve visited several lighthouses in various states. They are amazing. I’ve been on ghost hunts at a few. Some creepy experiences were had by all. Great time!
