Fun facts:
August 2009: the Travel Channels Ghost Adventures crew along
with nautical historian (and WindCheck contributor) Andrea Watson,
and Matt Meyran, of Port Washington, NY Water Taxi, spent the night
at Execution Rock Lighthouse investigating its storied past.
The lighthouse got its name during the Revolutionary War, when the
English, who were adverse to criminals loud screams prior to
their demise by hanging, took the unfortunate miscreants out to the
rock pile in the middle of Western Long Island Sound, tied them to
the rocks and let the tide do their dirty work for them. Show aired
Friday, December. 18. on The Travel Channel. --
