Summary
Mackinac Island is famous for its fudge, Victorian charm, and car-free streets—but there’s more to this idyllic Michigan getaway than meets the eye. Beneath the surface of its historic buildings and scenic shorelines lies a haunted history that has drawn ghost hunters and thrill-seekers from across the country. From the restless spirits said to haunt the Mission Point Resort theater to unexplained phenomena at the Grand Hotel and Fort Mackinac, this island is as eerie as it is enchanting. In this episode, we’re joined by Todd Clements, founder of the Haunts of Mackinac ghost tour company and author of two books on the island’s paranormal activity. Todd takes us deep into the legends, local lore, and chilling encounters that make Mackinac one of the most haunted places in the Midwest. Whether you’re a skeptic or a true believer, one thing’s for sure: Mackinac Island has more than a few ghosts hiding in plain sight. This is Part Two of our conversation.
ABOUT OUR GUEST: When it comes to the hauntings of Mackinac Island, Todd Clements wrote the book on it. Literally, he’s written two books on the ghostly side of the island. He also owns the Haunts of Mackinac Island ghost tour company.
You can purchase his books, "The Haunts of Mackinac Island" and "The Haunts of Mackinac Island, The Next Chapter," on Amazon.
