The lighthouse has been standing since 1830, and was active for more than 135 years until the Navy purchased it in 1965. It is considered to be the world’s most haunted lighthouse, and many ghost stories and pictures stem from the location. The park offers daily tours as well as nightly ghost hunts of the lighthouse.
