Collection of Ghostly Encounters

A collection of ghostly encounters from Michigan's Thumb and Upper Peninsula include the following: a haunted hunting camp, a spirit who is damned to perdition, a residual haunting in the ghost town of Fayette, wet footprints left by a waterlogged spirit, a fishing pier whose ghosts are not camera shy, and a young spirit searching for a playmate for eternity.

Hauntings are frequent in the small towns and villages of Lake Huron's sunrise coast known as the Thumb. The huge fires of 1871 and 1881 left spirits to wander the peninsula in search of eternal rest. Lost lovers, shipwrecked sailors frozen into grotesque shapes and floating apparitions follow the lake shore roads.
