Ghost and lighthouses seem to be synonymous with each other and Michigan has the most lighthouses in any one state in the U.S. At one point in Michigan history, we had over 200 working lighthouses on our lakes. The number has shrunk significantly over the years and most lighthouses these days are fully automated.
Humans might not have a hand in guiding the ships along the lakes anymore, but the ghosts of past keepers are still doing their jobs, even if they are dead. Enjoy reading about some of Michigan’s well known haunted lighthouses and the stories behind them. We're pretty sure every light house in the world has a ghost...
