Book Description
Tour Connecticut's most fascinating seaside hauntings. Nearly 400 years of spirited tales are covered, from the ghostly legacy of colonial witchcraft trials to cursed pirate gold, from spectral voices at haunted battlefields to ghost ships that sail stormy skies. Visit the cursed gravesite of Midnight Mary in New Haven's Evergreen Cemetery, who is said to have been buried alive, and shadow folk who silently flit among the ruins of Bridgeport’s old Remington Arms Factory. Meet Ernie, the ghostly lighthouse keeper of New London's Ledge Light, and read about the Bridgeport Poltergeist that shocked the nation and inspired a major motion picture. There are ghost ships, treasure, and much more to entice you along the haunted seaside of Connecticut, but be prepared to be chilled.
