Old Lighthouse
The first owner of this old lighthouse was brutally murdered around 1872 and since then, the lighthouse has been haunted. The apparition is regularly heard going up the staircase. However, he is never heard coming down.

In St. Augustine, Florida there is something similar. Basically a “ghost” who walks up and down the steps on the lighthouse and whomever is there can hear him…Then when the door is checked, both the “office door” and the downstairs one—they are locked. STRANGE.
Bid deal I say. Our FLORIDA GHOST can kick your GEORGIA ghost ANYTIME, ANYWHERE.
BRING IT.

I have been to the light house once. I had heard stories about the ghost so I was a little scared to go. When I got there I had to go pee so I went to the bathroom and on the way out I heard someone outside the door(wich is right in front of the staircase). I opened it up and there was a man standing there. I was so scared that I ran to my family and asked did they see anyone do throught the door to the stairs.They said no. I let them go to the top while I staid at the bottom. They came back and said no one way up there besides them and no came out of the door. weird huh?

I really don’t believe any of your stories on this lighthouse. Though does anyone kneow how he was murdered?

He was shot in the head in the front yard of the caretaker’s house back when lighthouses had caretakers. There were two families living there at the time sharing responsibility of the light house. The two men began arguing one night and it ended with one shooting the other in the head. Also, only a few years ago an elementary school teacher committed sucide by throwing herself from the lighthouse railing onto the concrete below. True story. I live there.

Hey, Yes that story is true, if you don’t believe it bring you butt down here and listen. I have, it freaked me out. And what the other guy said is true, the teacher said goodbye to her son and went up the lighthouse and jumped off. It was a terrible day down here. But the story is true, most of them are that you hear about St. Simons.
P.S. Our GA ghost will beat your Fl ghost anytime, that ol’ wimpy *** ghost. Please.

My mom likes lighthouses and I think she won’t like this one much since it is scarry. Is this a real haunted house and is it still is? My friend and i want to go to this haunted house. His website is xanga.com/him411 or xanga.com/skatelife12. My friends name is Zach.
Comment by T.J. | 10.19.2006 | 6:31 pm
no. it’s not a haunted house anymore. the ghost got tired of the long hours and never ending lines of dumbasses trying to poke him and take pictures.cockbite!
Comment by VINSON22 | 10.20.2006 | 8:21 am
Seen this lighthouse, never got to visit it. My question is why isn’t there any ghost stories from Savannah on here. Savannah, GA is one of the south’s most haunted cities!

I’ve been to this place before. I saw a light in the window of the house. It’s was really freaky. But if you guys think thats freaky you should have been with me tonight at this old haunted house were a guy shot his wife head off.

I lived on St. Simons and have heard all the tales. The lighthouse IS haunted. I have heard the footsteps after coming down the stairs myself and no one else was up there with me. I reopened the door and there was no one there. The light house gift shop has a book of the tales of the island and the history of the lighthouse. I do not believe the haunt is mean or evil, but just a wandering spirit that hasn’t left yet…I would enjoy actually seeing if I can catch the spectre on film and audio, amateur ghost hunter that I am. St. Simons is full of ghost stories and hauntings…the light at Christ Church…the girl looking and calling for her lover by the river after the hurricane in the 1800’s…the ghosts of Confederate Soldiers seen in and around Bloody Marsh…The Witch’s headmarker by Pink Chapel…the Hauntings of Pink Chapel ( It might have been torn down…small thing made of stucco…the roof timbers crossed where they met the walls and cast upside down crosses on the floor at the right times)
I have seen the light in the Christ Church graveyard…no one there…never saw the soldiers…and investigated Pink Chapel. There are many haunts on the island…and alot of history as well.

I heard a completely different story..I heard the man was having an affair or something and something happened, idk, i just know there was an affair going on somewhere in there…it was his wife or something?? And that teacher that jumped off…she was my second grade teacher.

I’ll tell you guys something. This old lighthouse is not to be messed with. I visited this lighthouse about 4 years ago with a few friends of mine. My friend Michael went in to the lighthouse first and Randy and I waited for him outside. After 3 minutes, we left because we knew there was no hope for Michael. The next morning I read in the newspaper that a boy was found murdered on the staircase. I knew it was Michael. I feel bad to this day.

Hello, my name is Christopher Tyree Marshall. I think the story of the haunted light house in Saint Simon’s Island is very interesting. Ironically enough I will be heading there later on this evening through sunday. I am an aspiring Paranormal Investigator. Hopefully I will experience something paranormal!
