For 125 years, the James & Law Building has stood at the heart of Clarksburg a home to the same business since the day its doors opened. Through fires, shifting eras, and generations of change, the building has never gone dark. But while the business continues, so do the stories.
From basement to top floor, every corner carries whispers of lives lost and shadows left behind. On Saturday, October 18, 2025, guides from the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum (TALA) will lead you through this living landmark, uncovering the spirits that refuse to leave.
Tour times: 7:00, 7:30, 8:00, and 8:30 PM
Tour groups are limited to 15 participants each - Get Tickets Early if you want your group to be together!!
Ages: Recommended 12 & Up
