What is it about islands that make them ideal settings for ghost
stories? Maybe it's because an island is the perfect place to
dispose of a body or bury treasure, or maybe there's some truth to
the lore than spirits cannot travel over water. Whatever the case,
with over 3,000 coastal islands, Maine has more than its share of
those that are haunted. The proposed book features twenty-one
haunted islands off the coast of Maine. A partial list of hauntings
includes the following: Outer Heron Island: Death, panic, and
mysterious fog plague this island, which is home to a vengeful
ghost guarding a lost grave and a legendary treasure linked to a
sea cave embellished in strange hieroglyphics. Swan's Island: A
number of ghosts haunt Swan's Island, but the most noteworthy is a
spirit appearing as a young, disoriented girl who leads people to
the cemetery in the village of Atlantic and then mysteriously
disappears before anyone discovers her grave. Mount Desert Rock:
The station at this remote rock in the ocean contains a demonic
spirit that targets anyone who spends the night in one particular
room, inducing petrifying dreams that reenact a tragedy that took
place there. Roque Island: This private island, which contains a
mile-long white sand beach, is inhabited by the ghosts of a 19th
century patriarch, a maid, and a young boy known as Gus, who spent
his life in a cage due to incurable madness. Sable Island: The
graveyard of the Atlantic, with more 350 shipwrecks, Sable Island
is haunted by the spirits of those who drowned there, those who
were left to fend for themselves in a bloody penal colony, and two
women, one who was murdered, and one whose lifeless body was
desecrated to remove the ring she wore.
