Penfield Reef lighthouse is believed to be haunted by a friendly keeper who drowned during a storm on route to the mainland.


Penfield Reef lighthouse is believed to be haunted by the ghost of Keeper Jorden, who was bringing presents to the mainland to his family for the holidays, got caught in a gale storm, and drowned. Many accounts have described the keeper's ghost in the tower, and he has helped mariners who described him during storms, guiding them to safety.
