THE STORY

Reported Haunting

The Georgetown Light, also known as the North Island Light, is said to be watched over by the ghosts of a former light keeper and his daughter, Annie.

Located on North Island at the entrance to Winyah Bay, the Georgetown Light is tied to the legend of a lighthouse keeper and his young daughter, Annie. According to the story, the pair drowned after rough waters overtook their boat during a return trip from Georgetown. Sailors later claimed to see Annie's ghost near the lighthouse, especially before storms, as if warning them of danger.
