Legends and Lights: Paranormal Tour of Placerville Union Cemetery

Step into the shadows of one of the Oldest Cemeteries in California's Gold Country. Lanterns and Legends is an immersive nighttime tour of Placerville'sUnion Cemetery, where history and hauntings come together beside the headstones.


Explore chilling true stories from Placerville's past, including that of Joeseph Staples, the first El Dorado County Lawman to get killed in the line of duty by Confederate Outlaws in1864.


This is no ordinary Ghost Walk. Guests will use real EMF readers and Flashlights to explore the grounds, followed by a guided EVP session with professional paranormal equipment at a few key historic graves.


We will also check out the historic and VERY haunted Sequoia House across the street. Where it is said the former nanny and 4 year old son of the past owner, Marcus Bennett, still haunt and are seen peering out the windows at onlookers.


Plus, an interesting little surpise!
