The Ghostly Tales of Bar Harbor

Welcome to spooky Bar Harbor, Maine!

Did you know that the shipwrecked souls of the missing Mary Jane have stuck around Mount Desert Island for centuries? Or that a terrifying “Shadow Man” haunts the Village Burying Ground? Can you believe Bar Harbor is home to ghostly animals who’ve never quite departed—including cats, horses, and even a phantom cow?

Pulled right from history, these ghostly tales will change the way you see Bar Harbor forever, and have you sleeping with the lights on!

Note From the Author:

I was thrilled to be asked to write The Ghostly Tales of Bar Harbor because my husband and I just took a vacation there in the summer of 2025! It was so much fun writing about the spooky side of the places we’d visited.
