The Ghost of St. Simons Lighthouse | Georgia’s Haunted Coast
October ghost stories continue on Waking Up with Flem. 👻
This week, Ryan and Marlee head to the Georgia coast for the chilling legend of The Ghost of St. Simons Lighthouse.
The lighthouse has stood on St. Simons Island since the 1800s, and behind its beautiful coastal views is a much darker piece of history. In 1880, lighthouse keeper Frederick Osborne was shot during a dispute with his assistant keeper. Osborne later died from his injuries, but according to local legend, he may never have truly left the lighthouse.
For generations, visitors have reported unexplained footsteps climbing the spiral staircase, strange sounds inside the tower, and the feeling that someone is still making the rounds long after the lighthouse keeper’s final shift.
Ryan and Marlee break down the real history, the tragedy behind the legend, and the ghost stories that have kept people talking for more than a century.
The history is real. The stories are real. The ghost? We’ll let you decide.
Turn the lights down, grab some coffee, and join us for Episode 2 of our October ghost story series on Waking Up with Flem. 🎙️👻🌙

Ghost Stories : The Lady of Lake Lanier | Georgia’s Most Famous Ghost Story
October is getting spooky on Waking Up with Flem. 👻 This month, Ryan and Marlee are diving into real ghost stories, local legends, and creepy tales with actual history behind them.
We’re starting with one of Georgia’s most famous legends: The Lady of Lake Lanier.
In 1958, two women disappeared near Lake Lanier. A body was found the following year, but the mystery wouldn’t fully unravel for more than three decades. Somewhere along the way, stories began spreading about a mysterious woman in blue appearing near the lake—and the legend of the Lady of Lake Lanier was born.
In this episode, we break down what actually happened, where the legend came from, and the stories people still tell today.
The disappearance was real. The mystery was real. The ghost? We’ll let you decide.
Grab a cup of coffee, turn the lights down, and kick off spooky season with us on Waking Up with Flem. 🎙️

Things That Aren’t Worth the Money Anymore 💸
Ryan and Marlee headed out with Melody and Tim to cheer on the Georgia Bulldogs 🏈, while Maizee and Declan got the better end of the deal—spending Friday AND Saturday night with Mimi and Tom, where they were, of course, completely spoiled. 😂 Then Sunday it was back to the sidelines for Maizee’s soccer game. ⚽
Then we ask a question that seems to come up more and more lately:
When did EVERYTHING get so expensive?!
We’re talking about the things that just don’t feel worth the money anymore—fast food, movie theaters, concerts, vacations, streaming services, convenience fees, and all the other stuff that makes you look at the total and think, “Yeah… never mind.” 😂
Are these things actually getting ridiculous, or are we just officially at the age where we complain about how much everything costs?
Plus, we flip it around and talk about the things that may be overpriced…but we’re still willing to pay for anyway.
🎙️ Question of the Day: What has gotten so expensive that you finally decided it just isn’t worth the money anymore?
Waking Up with Flem — Season 3
Same people. Same chaos. More to complain about. 😂
