Beautiful Dark History

As always these types of haunted walks are best done in October for extra creepy vibes! I have done 3 different ones and I love the concept and the history!

Historic Haunts review

We loved this trip. It had the perfect blend of creepy places with the background story and not a lot of driving between stops. We did not try any of the restaurants suggested but did stop at a brewery-Farm League brewing which was a great addition to the trip.
