#MEwx #1 of the 4 most haunted places to visit in Maine

This is the first posting of  the four most haunted places in Maine for you to visit. Happy Haloween!

Fort William Henry | Pemaquid Beach | 55 Minutes

Fort William Henry was built in 1692 as the English fortified the frontiers of the Massachusetts colony. The fort’s construction was extraordinary, housing nearly 20 cannons and 60 soldiers. However, the fort’s splendor was short-lived. Before the area’s

colonization, the land was home to many Native Americans. Tension continued

between Native American people and the colonists. Tragically, in 1696, Native American Chief Taukolexis was hung by the fort. Local legend has it that he haunts the historic site to this day.
