Description
As your tour guide leads you by lantern light through our historic 200 year-old graveyard, you will meet some of the more interesting “residents” who from time to time make an appearance. Now in our 14th season, the Graveyard Tours change every year with new characters and new features, but always in the same spirit of learning and fun.

What can I bring: Cameras (no flash photography) and flashlights are welcome. Please silence cell phones.
Refunds: Tickets are non-refundable.
How should I dress: Please dress appropriately for the weather and the terrain. October evenings can be cold, so dress warmly. Because the ground is uneven, we recommend wearing rubber-soled shoes or sneakers. In the event of severe weather, a cancellation notice will be posted on the website with a make-up date.
Is the tour scary: These are historical tours, not haunted tours, and therefore are not meant to be scary.
Do you take walk-ins: We will accommodate walk-ins if there is room on the tour. Payable by cash or check at the door.
Strollers: We’re sorry but strollers are not allowed on the tour. Much of the tour is off-path. Young children will need to walk or be carried.
Mobility Impaired: We offer a golf cart for mobility challenged adults and children. Please call the office for details.
Pets: Service animals only.
Questions: Questions about tours or ticket orders can only be handled during office hours at 845 229 2820: Tuesday – Friday from 8:30 am – 2:30 pm.
