Depoe Bay Ghosts -
The-Ghosts-Of-Lincoln-City-Siletz-Bay-And-Depoe-Bay-Oregon
Several spooky stories inhabit Lincoln City, Oregon.
The North Lincoln
Fire Station is said to have an apparition lounging in the recreation area.
Former Visitors Bureau official Jennifer Sears vouches for that one, saying
she's encountered something there she couldn't explain.
At the beautiful
Wildflower Grill, on the north end of town, some have talked about encountering
a helpful geist named Matilda, who liked to putter around the restaurant. At one
point, the place was supposedly "cleaned" of any spirits by a group of
ghostbuster-types. But for a while, she would pull a prank or two, knock objects
around the kitchen, and had been known to conduct herself in a politically
incorrect manner by occasionally patting someone on the behind.

Oregon Recreation Report (Corvallis Gazette-Times)
Sport crabbing is open in the ocean, bays and estuaries. Bay crabbing often slows after heavy rain because crab head toward the ocean where the water is more salty.

On Siletz
Bay, numerous locals have talked about seeing a ghost ship appear and then
disappear over the years. This one has some added potency because there have
been several shipwrecks there before the 20th century. The skeleton of one such
wreckage was visible there until the 80's (a scientific crew went in search of
that one earlier this year).
There's actually a videotape sold by the
Lincoln City Visitors Center that features a group of paranormal investigators
looking into the angry ghost that wanders upstairs at Depoe Bay's The Spouting
Horn restaurant. This one gets rather chilling in some spots. At one point, the
group finds out there was once a doorway in the spot where, according to
employees, the spook keeps walking through the wall. The video gets really
freaky when the two female hunters tell their male colleague to be absolutely
still, as the ghost is standing next to him and extremely
aggravated.
