Itinerary
1
Boothbay Harbor Footbridge
Stroll along America’s longest wooden footbridge and enjoy spectacular harbor views. Why is Boothbay Harbor so haunted? We’ll discuss some of the theories about the Boothbay region being considered a thin place, starting with the Burnt Island Lighthouse at the harbor’s entrance with its long history of lighthouse keepers—some who never really left the island.
10 minutes
2
Boothbay Harbor Memorial Library
On a cold December afternoon, a mysterious stranger dressed all in black checked into the Hotel Fullerton and headed out for a glimpse of ocean surf. Her identity and untimely end are still unsolved mysteries almost 100 years after her body was retrieved from the ocean and buried in an unmarked grave on Southport Island.
10 minutes
3
Captain Sawyer's Bed and Breakfast
First stop on Ghost Row...this is one haunted street! Beginning with Minnie’s ghost at Captain Sawyer’s Inn and Kaler’s disembodied torso and dancing girl, we’ll start our exploration of spirited Commercial Street!
10 minutes
4
Tugboat Restaurant
We continue our tour of spirited Commercial Street with stories about Mr. Duffy at the Admiral’s Quarters Inn who only wants a little peace and quiet to the former (and some say, current) captain of the tugboat Maine who is still seen as its helm today.
10 minutes

10 minutes

Wharf Street
What do Queen Elizabeth I, a ring, and Outer Heron Island have in common? Would you believe the claim on the $1 billion dollar dukedom? This legendary island boats a bunch of ghost, buried treasure, and the lost grave of an English nobleman.

Footbridge Brewery & Bridgehouse BBQ
One of the early pillars of this community was brutally murdered at home after an act of kindness. His home was run as the Kenniston Hill Inn for many years and notoriously haunted as featured on an episode of A&E’s My Ghost Story.
