S12 E3 - F-Bomb - The Lilac Lady of Marquette - The Ghost Who Still Waits by Lake Superior
About this episode
This episode explores the haunting legend of the Lilac Lady in Marquette, Michigan, a ghost story intertwined with themes of love and loss.
Tonight, on F-Bomb Friday, we travel to Marquette, Michigan, for the haunting legend of the Lilac Lady — a ghostly figure said to linger near the sixth floor of the historic Landmark Inn. Her story is one of love, loss, Lake Superior, and the scent of lilacs drifting through an old hotel where guests have reported strange phone calls, footsteps, cold spots, and sightings of a woman who may still be waiting for someone who never came home. This is not a monster story. It is a ghost story built from grief, memory, and the kind of folklore that refuses to die. #FBombFriday #MichiganFolklore #LilacLady #MarquetteMichigan #HauntedMichigan Hosted and Produced by Tracy Preston, Featuring Todd Preston Story Researched and Written by Todd Preston Original music created exclusively for F-Bomb by Tracy Preston Original artwork by Todd Preston Sources: “12 Incredibly Haunted Places in the Upper Peninsula.” Pure Michigan, Michigan Economic Development Corporation, n.d., michigan.org.
