Halloween Night Ghost Tours

Ancient Celts believed that on October 31, the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead became blurred, and the ghosts of the dead freely walked the earth. This Halloween, find out for yourself if it's true. Are there spirits with us in the historic Stockade? Guided by expert storytellers, we'll learn the ghostly tales of this nearly 400-year-old neighborhood as we traverse the ancient streets, encountering lingering spirits, moonlit graves, and more.
Halloween Night tours are $16 and you can choose either the “Colonial Hauntings” or “Ghostly Victorian” tour. The two tours feature different stories, and venture through different parts of the neighborhood. We recommend you bring a flashlight and sturdy footwear to navigate the Stockade’s uneven sidewalks. Each tour lasts 60-90 minutes – both tours cannot be done on the same night.
The tour meets at SCHS, 32 Washington Avenue, Schenectady. Please arrive early so that you have time to find parking on the street and to walk to SCHS. Parking is not allowed in the YWCA parking lot. Candlelight Tours are co-sponsored by the Schenectady Heritage Foundation to benefit historic preservation in Schenectady County.
Saturday, October 31 at 6pm, 6:30pm, and 7pm
