AFTER DARK | The Rock That Remembers: Terrible Tilly and the Haunting of Tillamook Lighthouse | Ghosts, Isolation & Ashes at Sea

This episode contains references to death, psychological distress, and human remains. Listener discretion is advised.

Isolated a mile off the Oregon coast, Terrible Tilly was never meant to survive. From its first fatal survey to a hundred years of wrecks, ruined minds, and sealed urns, Tillamook Rock Lighthouse has drawn more than storms. Some say its light never really went out — that something still watches from the empty lantern tower.
