Most Maine towns (and each cemetery) has at least one good “ghost story.” Here are a few documented hauntings. (This list starts at the New Hampshire border, and continues up the coastline.)

Savannah, GA – Haunted Bonaventure Cemetery
Savannah is one of my favorite cities to visit, and it hosts one of the South’s most beautiful cemeteries.

Most of the time, the energy is subtle and your experiences will reflect your patience and sensitivity at the site. It was 2001, and Halloween was fast approaching. On this evening, I felt far more confident that I would capture…
