We receive calls and emails quite frequently asking the question, “Which tour should I take where I might experience a ghost?” The answer is this one! We will introduce you to one of the resident spirits in this cemetery who has many messages for the living. Dare to step forward and communicate through the veil with Elizabeth.

This hour plus walking tour is a well-balanced journey of fascinating history and cemetery hauntings. Also, this tour highlights unusual burial and cemetery customs, superstitions, and traditions from Colonial times through the 19th century. Only offered a few times each year, be sure to reserve early, as it does sell out quickly.
