Within these pages you will not find ancient ghost stories or legendary accounts of spooky events of long ago. Instead, Rev. Gerald S. Hunter shares his investigations into modern ghost stories... active hauntings that continue to this day. You'll learn that "Dead Brothers Still Care" in Escanaba, and that "Amish Kids Like Cake, Too" in Montgomery. From Marshall's "Spectral Sewing Circle," to Milford's "Demon in the Dark," Haunted Michigan uncovers a chilling array of local spirits in its tour of the two peninsulas.

Travel Michigan’s coast—and into the state’s history—with otherworldly tales of the spirits of those who sought to keep its waters safe. Michigan has more lighthouses than any other state, with more than 120 dotting its expansive Great Lakes shoreline. Many of these lighthouses lay claim to haunted happenings. Former keepers like the cigar-smoking Captain Townshend at Seul Choix Point and prankster John Herman at Waugoshance Shoal near Mackinaw City maintain their watch long after death ended their duties. At White River Light Station in Whitehall, Sarah Robinson still keeps a clean and tidy house, and a mysterious young girl at the Marquette Harbor Lighthouse seeks out other children and female companions. Countless spirits remain between Whitefish Point and Point Iroquois in an area well known for its many tragic shipwrecks. Join author and Promote Michigan founder Dianna Stampfler as she recounts the tales from Michigan’s ghostly beacons. “Haunting tales of Michigan’s lighthouses . . . Her stories come from lighthouse museums, friends and family.”—Great Lakes Echo
