Haunted Ghost Tour at the Patterson Inn

The Benjamin Patterson Inn has been standing for 211 years. Thousands of footsteps have echoed on the broad floors, and its original front door has opened and closed countless times. Do ghostly feet haunt the Inn? Volunteers and staff tell of the front door opening—the bell ringing loudly—and footsteps sounding in the entrance. Often, no one is there. Others have heard loud crashes overhead—yet nothing has been disturbed. Some have even heard voices. Has a colonial traveler returned? Is the Inn home to ghostly spirits of long ago? Come and see on Saturday, Oct. 25, from 7-9 p.m.

Brave visitors can walk through the Inn, the log cabin, barn, and schoolhouse and see what ghosts await them.

For those weary travelers who do not want to enter the Inn at night, there will be Halloween and fall crafts in the Welcome Center conference room (crafts appropriate for all ages).
