The Story
New England Legends recounts a Coast Guardsman's memory of relieving the keeper in 1955: after his first night, the keeper's wife asked whether he had seen a ghost and said a former keeper's wife still haunted the lighthouse. Other lighthouse folklore describes a woman's crying and a child's laughter in the isolated tower.
