THE STORY
Reported Haunting
Race Rock Lighthouse has long been associated with the spirit of its first keeper, Neil Martin, who died while serving there. Lighthouse staff have reported apparitions, footsteps, and other unexplained occurrences.
The first keeper Neil Martin died here as well. Witnesses have reported ghostly whispers, laughter, yells, footsteps, and voices that call their name, as well as being touched, poked or pushed by an unseen hand. Wet footprints have been seen coming out of the shower area, which has not had running water for years. (The lighthouse was automated in 1978, eliminating the need for a live-in keeper.) Nonetheless, the shadowy figure of a man has been seen in the tower by people passing by.
