About this Event
New date added: Friday Nov 8 - 7p
The perfect event for you and your gal pals, sisters, moms, aunts, or other female-identifying friends! In a special night for the ladies, join us for tales of York's many feminine haunts, as well as the fascinating women's history of our town.
- Have you heard about Catherine, wife of the town pharmacist who still walks the shop?
- Did you know York denied women's suffrage in 1915?
- Or that the wife of a famous Black business owner from York strongly contributed to the nation's love for Christmas trees?
This is not the usual haunted history walk, this is HERstory!
Join storyteller and historian Rissa Miller to explore the mysterious side of York's past and present. Guests will travel by foot from the White Rose to allegedly haunted locations around downtown with stops in haunted House of Flowers and the Yorktowne Hotel.
