This I found interesting and funny all at the same time:
The more I dig into Bucksport's History, the more subjects I get for wild books. If you think about it, you have the witch's curse, a wildly believed and never dared disputed made up story by a news reporter in town to cover the Sarah Ware Murder investigation in 1898.
You have a elephant named Charlie that ran amuck in 1892, for 2 weeks.
You have a Sea Captain, that was convicted of murdering 3 and burning their home down.
Then if you really dig deep, you find that the town is actually built on a Red Paint Cemetery and the first Archaeological Dig in the State of Maine, maybe the Country was at Indian Point, where the Mill stands today.
A town with so much bizarre history, and stories, might be well worth writing about. Then again, being the big TV fan I am, seems like a show, back in the late 80's about a town, with a murder that detectives were hunting for a killer. What was that show, it was rich in Native American Mystique, had White Lodges and strange happenings every week?
Ah, yes that was it, Twin Peaks.
Now if Maine had such a thing, Bucksport seems like the likely spot. After All I did coin the phrase, "Bucksport is a Haven for the Supernatural." Sure it was a play on words, since I do live here, and so it is my haven.
So if Bucksport is Maine's Twin Peaks, don'tcha think we oughta have Twin Peaks overlooking the town. Hmmm?
I personally did not know of the Sea Captain part of Bucksport... so thought that was interesting.. :) I think the second one is the captain.. the first one well is there a Twin Peaks in Maine?? hmm or is it Bucksport itself?? lol :)
And I did not know about the town of Bucksport, the town is actually built on a Red Paint Cemetery Isn't that interesting hence all the hauntings probably! Interesting stuff I had to share!
