Ghost Fishermen Return To Academy Cove

Beware

A resident sent these photos, taken over the weekend, and included this information:

Since the mid 18th century it has been rumored that what is now known as Wickford's Academy Cove has been haunted by two fishermen who lost their lives when their skiff overturned there on a cold evening just before All Souls Day. Though claims of their annual reappearance have been annually dismissed, a motion sensing camera captured this image on the Cove behind the Elam Street house of Amy and Toby Sonder on Saturday evening at precisely midnight.
