The Haunted: Big Bay Point Light House

          On the shores of the famously haunted Lake Superior sits a lighthouse, built of brick and concrete. Though the light was automated decades ago, hundreds still pass through its doors to stay the night. This month’s haunting is the Big Bay Point Lighthouse, which is the only operational lighthouse with a bed and breakfast. It’s …

The Mysterious: Michigan Stonehenge

          As promised in last month’s historical mystery post, this month we will be discussing Lake Michigan Stonehenge, what it actually is, what it could be, and why it’s there.

       This month’s urban legend is a little-known tale from Algoma Township, near Rockford, MI - how are you all liking this dive into the lore of the mitten state?

Creepy Cryptids: The Michigan Dogman

          Growing up in Michigan has afforded me a lot of connection to nature - the beaches and their lakes, rivers, sand dunes, and incredibly expansive forests. The forests, however, have historically given me the creeps. Any time I’ve ever spent in forests - hiking, camping, even walking in my backyard - has normally ended with …
