Event Details
Lake Erie, with its scenic views and world-class fishing has become a source of pride for our state and even our nation. However, throughout history, it has offered an ideal backdrop for evil misdeeds to be carried out. Pirates, robbers, and even murderers have used the 240-mile stretch of open waters and dark shoreline to conduct such bloody offenses. Join author Wendy Koile as she recounts such eerie tales that occurred on this great but deadly lake.
Koile is a lifelong resident and explorer of Ohio and is the author of four books with the History Press including Lake Erie: Murder and Mayhem, Disasters on the Lake Erie Islands, Legends and Lost Treasures of Northern Ohio, and Geneva on the Lake.
