Point Lookout Light is described as a very haunted site, known for reported paranormal experiences such as recorded voices, disembodied singing, chilling air, and the appearance of a large tabby cat. Its reputation stems from its proximity to a Union army prison camp for Confederate soldiers during the Civil War, where prisoners suffered from starvation, disease, and mistreatment, leading to numerous deaths. Paranormal investigators have reportedly recorded numerous voices, both male and female, speaking and singing within the lighthouse. Visitors have reported sudden and inexplicable drops in temperature, or very chilly air, in certain parts of the structure. A large tabby cat has been reported to appear or disappear, adding to the haunted reputation of the location. Some accounts mention the presence of a European-style ghost, though specifics are not provided.
