The Story
Battery Point Lighthouse's ghost lore comes largely from accounts attributed to keepers and docents. HauntBound describes footsteps climbing toward the lantern room, a rocking chair apparently moving without an occupant, displaced slippers, and cigar odors in otherwise empty rooms. Some storytellers identify a longtime keeper, while others suggest multiple presences; those identities remain conjectural. A single secondary directory remains the principal detailed story source unless additional story evidence is listed. No paranormal claims are independently proven.
