Ghost Stories of South Carolina- Grey Man on the Beach

Grey Man on the Beach comes out when a hurricane is approaching. The story says that the families of two young lovers decided to break off their relationship by sending the young man to France to study. On the trip to Europe his boat sank due to a hurricane, and all passengers were thought to be dead. Then one day, while the young lady was grieving for her lost love, a young man washed up on the shores of Pawley’s Island. The woman quickly came to his rescue quickly realizing that it was her lost love. The reunion was short lived however, because the man died a few days later of a fever contracted in the terrible storm. Since then he is said to roam the island appearing just before hurricanes to warn people of the coming danger. He has been seen many times over the years. He was last seen by many people before Hurricane Hugo almost destroyed the island in 1989.
