In Broad Sound near Boston lies the island of Nahant--the Salem of the Sea, where history and lore combine. Long ago called "Nahantus," it is very likely haunted. Might the arctic-blue aura over Bayley's Hill be the unsettled spirit of a Viking explorer killed, buried, and desecrated there? Sailors, watchmen, and locals have reported it for centuries...

Then there is the sea serpent of greater Boston Harbor. Have you seen it yet? Entire expeditions once put to sea to capture the serpent. It slipped away...but keeps coming back.

And what of the Wicca rituals along the Ley Lines connecting Nahant to nearby Salem, as well as Stonehenge and Aztec temples? Were there witches on Nahant? Are there still?

From Thorvald the Viking and the Salem Witch Trials, to modern Wicca and UFOs over Neptune's Temple, take a look inside the unexplained lore of this unassuming island.

Historian, author, and Captain of the Massachusetts State Guard (retired), Gerald W. Butler, looks into these mysteries and more...and catches the US Air Force in a public relations gaff concerning the UFOs photographed above Nahant in 1959. (Hint: the objects were not weather balloons.) Carefully illustrated with historic photographs and original artwork, the truth--and deeper mysteries--beckon from Nahauntus.
