What is it about islands that make them ideal settings for ghost stories? Maybe it’s because an island is the perfect place to dispose of a body or bury treasure, or maybe there’s some truth to the lore than spirits cannot travel over water. Whatever the case, with over 3,000 coastal islands, Maine has more than its share of those that are haunted.
This book features 21 haunted islands off the coast of Maine, including:
Outer Heron Island: Death, panic, and mysterious fog plague this island, which is home to a vengeful ghost guarding a lost grave
Swan’s Island: A young, disoriented girl who leads people to the cemetery in the village of Atlantic and then mysteriously disappears
Mount Desert Rock: The station at this remote rock in the ocean
Roque Island: This private island is inhabited by the ghosts of a 19th century patriarch, a maid, and a young boy known as Gus
