In a cozy inn on the charming island of Mackinac in Michigan, it is said that the girl is haunting the house. Playing the piano at night, playing with electronics, and also appearing before guests, her spirit begs to return home.
In the shiny waters of the Huron lake between the upper and lower half -vein, Michigan Mackinac is a composed retreat known for its picturesque beauty, historical charm and amazing supernatural reputation. In fact, the Mackinac Island was called the most haunted city in America in 2021, and many stories over the years. And with only a full -time population of about 583 people, ghosts may even outweigh the living.
Without allowed cars and transport restricted to bicycles and horse carriages, the island offers a unique step in time. Some people come to enjoy the quiet seaside and enjoy the renowned fudge. The island has become an ideal summer place for Americans, but after tourists leave in autumn, the fog from the strait appears, and the leaves change color, the spirit of the island remains to persecute.
Short history of the island of Mackinac
The history of the island of Mackinac dates back to thousands of years, and native peoples, such as Odna, Ojibwe and Huron, taking into account the holy place long before the arrival of European settlers. The name of the island itself, from the word Ojibwe “Michilimackinac”, means “Big Turtle”, referring to the shape of the island when it is viewed from above.
The French founded commercial fur in the 17th century, and the island later became a strategic military institution during the war for independence and war in 1812. At the end of the 19th century, it became a more summer colony and a tourist place, which it is still.
Haunted inside the Bogan Lane Inn
Inn on the island was built in the mid -1850s as a private residence at Bogan Lane in the center of Mackinac, a peculiar inviting house with white painted wood and a cozy veranda.
The chimney was built when the fish industry developed by many Irish families arriving in the US after potato hunger was largely. He was empty for 40 years before the hotel was again again. First, in 1957 a up-to-date foundation, a heating system and a bathroom were installed.
As with many venerable buildings on the island of Mackinac, Bogan Inn has haunted legends and is reportedly haunted by the spirit of a little girl.
It is said that the spirit is a little girl with long shadowy hair, playing the piano and telling people that he wants to return home, she was also reported to Bogan Lane Inn. Nobody knows who she is or can be or when the haunting began. Internet posts on this subject reach at least 2005.
This is not the only haunted inn on the street, because Pine Cottage Bed & Breakfast on the other side of the street also has its own ghost stories. In this inn there is a story about the spirit of a little girl named Lucy said that she was haunting the whole island. Although similar stories are often told separately, and Lucy is often described with very different, although they are both looking for parents.

In addition to revealing a little girl, guests and employees also talk about difficulties with electronics during their stay in the inn. The lights in their room are flickering and their television still turns on and off. Something paranormal or just venerable wiring?
There are also those who claim that they hear strange voices when there is no one there, whispering in the middle of the night, awakened by something of a snippeter, as if someone was trying to get.
Who is behind the haunting?
When did this haunting start? Who is the spirit of a little girl and where is her home really? As in the case of most seasonal open places, there is always a reason to come up with the history of ghosts when summer tourists leave, and the Halloween season enters the season. But again, all venerable houses have their own ghost history, and in the measure of the season, we all have to recognize, Mackinac Island and its white painted houses begin to become and haunt.
