White Lady of Millinocket - Millinocket, Maine

Legend says that in the 1940s or 50's era, a bride and groom were returning from their honeymoon and driving along the Brownville Road near Millinocket, Maine.  They were nearly home when for some unknown reason, the car swerved off the road and down an embankment into a ditch.  The new groom instructed his wife to stay in the car and he would go get some help.  When he returned, his wife was no where to be found.

To this day people say that if you are driving down the Brownville Road, often you can see an apparition of a woman dressed in white walking along this stretch of highway either on or near the green bridge.  Others say that she appears when the weather turns foul and there is a dense fog or mist. There is one account of a group of curiosity seekers that parked on the bridge with their lights out during a dense fog, hoping to get a glimpse of "The White Lady".  They got a little more than they bargained for because when they turned the lights back on, the windows had fogged up as you may expect with a lot of people in the car.  However, on the outside of the car in the condensation that gathered on the windows, there were hand prints all over.

It is rumored that on the original Brownville road that is next to the new one, you can still find the wreckage of the car that crashed that night long ago, still in the ditch.  Perhaps something happened to her on that dreadful night and her spirit returns to the place where it believes she can find her lost groom.
