Description

Explore the fascinating and often inexplicable tales of strange ghostly events in this Pacific Ocean state. At the Oregon Vortex in Gold Hill, gravity and light are distorted in one of the world's most bizarre paranormal anomalies. A phantom stagecoach is seen rolling up to the site of the Galesville Hotel in Douglas County, a structure that burned to the ground in 1931. A lighthouse keeper at the breathtaking Tillamook Lighthouse is reported to have watched in dismay as a phantom schooner foundered on the rocks--then vanished. From coastal Cannon Beach and Newport to Salem, Bend, La Grande, and many places in between, these stories of hair-raising folklore are sure to delight.
