Shepherdstown’s BooFest and the Historic Shepherdstown Museum Ghost Tours, October 26 and 27.
Halloween is coming and that means it’s time for Shepherdstown’s BooFest and the Historic Shepherdstown Museum’s Ghost Tours.
Here, at the most haunted building in the most haunted town in America, you will hear about some of our most prominent spirits — the lady in white, the amorous Frenchman, Civil War soldiers, and the unlucky duelist. Don’t miss the Traveler’s Room that, according to some, is the most haunted room in the building.
Join us for a free tour of the Museum and learn about some of the two dozen spirits that visitors have claimed to have seen, sensed and even felt. Tours will be offered on Saturday, October 26, and Sunday, October 27, every half hour from 1:00 to 3:30 PM. (Donations are always welcomed.)
On Saturday and Sunday evenings, follow local paranormal investigators Patricia Marin and Meredith Moore, along with psychic medium Angel Wells and dowser Les Johnson, as they explore the three floors of the museum. Tickets for these evening events are available below, and on Historic Shepherdstown and are $15 per person. Preregistration is required and participation is limited.
Feel free to bring your digital recorders to capture EVPs (spirit voices) and EMF meters (which may help locate the spirits), along with any other equipment you may have.
Don’t be scared. Our ghosts are known to be friendly, but curious. At least up to now.
Tickets for the Ghost Tour are available here:
