Do you want to discover if Absecon Lighthouse is home to ghostly keepers that still watch over the shore in Atlantic City? Did the Jersey Devil pay a visit in 1909? Come visit the Absecon Lighthouse to hear the true ghost stories that prompted a visit from SyFy’s Ghost Hunters! The New Jersey Researchers of Paranormal Evidence (NJ ROPE) will be on property to help you hunt for ghosts. Plus, hear and see their eerie recordings & video taken during previous paranormal investigations. Guided tours of our grounds and tower will let you explore our rich history and experience some spooky tales. Reservations are required; call 609-449-1360. Tour times are 6pm and 7pm and include a tower climb. But wait – there’s more! At 8pm, NJROPE invites you to join them on an actual paranormal investigation with ghost tracking equipment! Tickets for the one hour tours are $20.00, and tickets for the 2 & ½ hour ghost investigation are $45, and must be reserved or else we’ll send a ghost to follow you home!
Since The Inlet Public Private Association renovated the lighthouse tower, rebuilt the Keeper’s Cottage and re-opened to visitors, several staff and volunteers have shared stories of being alone on the property but hearing footsteps & voices, smelling smoke and even seeing a few ghostly apparitions. Now is your chance to experience the Absecon Lighthouse as you’ve never experienced it before.
Absecon Lighthouse is a state-owned historic property administered by the non-profit Inlet Public/Private Association. Located at 31 So. Rhode Island Avenue in Atlantic City, it is open to visitors Thursdays through Mondays, 11 am to 4 pm.
