The New London Ledge Lighthouse was constructed in 1909 on Black Ledge in Long Island Sound. Some say it's haunted.
There are 14 rooms in this Colonial style brick building. A quiet little mansion of some style sitting just outside New London, at the mouth of the Thames River, but far enough away to be isolated. A lighthouse keeper's life was predominantly one of isolation.
The haunting is assumed by many to be the ghost of Ernie, a lighthouse keeper living here in the 1930s, who leaped to his death off the top of the tower when he got a letter from his wife saying she had run off with the captain of the Block Island Ferry.
