GhostWalks

in Old Mauch Chunk  

 

Enjoy intriguing tales of lore of reported ghoulish encounters and stories of historic properties and people along Broadway.

The one mile round trip walks start in the lobby of the Inn at Jim Thorpe, 24 Broadway.  Led by a costumed storyteller with lantern, the walks, all outside, last about an hour, unless the spirits have other ideas!

Walks are planned according to the schedule found below but are subject to change if the spirits call for rain.

Although walk-ins are always welcome, space on each walk is limited, so call 570 325-2346 to reserve your places.  Private walks may also be available on certain dates and times for groups of 10 or more with advance notice.  Call for more information.

To purchase tickets, look for your GhostHost at the Inn at Jim Thorpe 15 minutes before walk time.  First come, first served without reservations.

Adults: $10.  Children: 7-12; $5.  While not scary, the GhostWalk is not recommended for children under 7 because they get distracted with some of the longer stories.  Attentive children are certainly welcome, however.

Proceeds from the GhostWalk help support the many community and international service projects of the Rotary Club of Jim Thorpe.

The GhostWalks entertained a total of 1340 people on 64 walks in 2010.  Don't miss your chance in 2012!
