Bentonsport, she decided it would be the perfect way to bring together
six local girlfriends for an exciting getaway. It turned out to be even
more memorable than they expected. Erickson and her friends helped a
paranormal investigation team attempt to contact and photograph the
inn’s spectral residents. While they didn’t bust any actual ghosts, “we
