This two-hour tour focuses only on local ghost tales and legends ~ no colonial history.
Some of the spooky tales are unique to this tour!
In 1771, Enoch Pugh swung from the gallows in Hillsborough, and he has been hanging around (well, buried close by) ever since.
Join Enoch for a 2.5 hour, 1.5-mile walk around downtown Hillsborough. At a dozen stops along the way including haunted houses and the execution site ~ Enoch will describe real history, native and post-colonial legends, and numerous "haints" reported in homes or in the area.
Among the stories you will hear:
Old Poplar, a house with only a dozen or so varied spirits.
Spirits of Seven Hearths, and the possible identities of both.
The Declaration signer who is buried here, and elsewhere.
Enoch also tells about his pre-Revolution exploits, gruesome death, and mysteries about him that have recently been solved, and others that have not....
Join us for tales of history, mystery, woe, and murder!
