2008 tours

Cooperstown Candlelight Ghost Tours will begin its fourth full season with a tour on Wednesday night, April 2, at 8:00 pm. Tours will take place nightly at 8:00 p.m., from April through August. Cooperstown Candlelight Ghost Tours will offer two different tour routes in 2008. The traditional east side tour of the village will take place three times a week (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday nights), while an alternate tour featuring the west side of the village will be offered on Sunday nights. As always, reservations are required and can be made via e-mail or by calling 607-547-8070

Tour prices are $15 for adult and $10 for children (ages 6-12). Children five and under are free. All tours depart from Pioneer Park, located on the corner of Main and Pioneer streets. The ghost tours are intended to provide both local residents and tourists with an opportunity to learn more about the village’s rich history of ghostly sightings and haunted houses. Those who take both the east side and west side tours will hear the stories of Byberry Cottage, the ghosts of the Church Street cemetery, the curse of Ann Cary, the John Miller house, and the Overlook Bed and Breakfast, along with other eerie tales.

The Cooperstown Candlelight Ghost Tours season will continue in September and October, with fall ghost tours also being offered on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays. The September-October fall tours will begin at 7:00 p.m.
