Using optical (Hα, [S II], and i'), near-IR (H2, J, H, and KS), mid-IR (Spitzer Space Telescope IRAC 4.5 μm), and submillimeter (850 and 450 μm) data, we have examined the region surrounding the IC 348 cluster and the neighboring ``Flying Ghost Nebula'' (FGN) and found a multitude of shocks from protostellar outflows including HH 211, which had previously not been detected in visible wavelength images. We have identified 13 protostars in the region that drive protostellar outflows. The region surrounding the FGN is rich in ongoing star formation, with a number of outflows similar to those found in other sites of moderate star formation in Perseus (e.g., L1448, L1455, and Barnard 1). We have also found a candidate bent jet in this region. The axis defined by the bending angle suggests that this source may have been ejected from a multiple star system near the IC 348 IR source.
