Weird Wednesday: The Unabridged Dog Lady Island Legend
Just south of the Lake Erie port town of Monroe in Monroe County, the Plum Creek opens up to reveal an overgrown little island. Although many Native American artifacts have been found there that date back to the 12th Century, locals have known the place as Dog Lady Island at least since the 1960s. Read the spooky tale from Weird Michigan!
