Hilton Head Island's Haunted Lighthouse | Encore Episode
Apr 21, 2025•27 min
Episode description
Hidden among the pines of Hilton Head Island, the skeletal remains of the Leamington Lighthouse stand as a relic of the past—and a vessel for something far more haunting. Local legend tells of Caroline Fripp, a dutiful daughter who braved a deadly storm to save her father, the lighthouse keeper, only to lose her life in the process. But did she ever exist? And why do locals still see a woman in blue when storms roll in off the Atlantic? This is the tale of Hilton Head’s haunted lighthouse and the enduring ghost said to guard it.
