As Halloween approaches, spirits come out of the shadows, eager to have their stories told. Now is the perfect time to visit them on their home turf. Join us for an enhanced Halloween version of our popular tour of Falmouth’s Old Burying Ground, where we’ll explore the gravesites of fascinating characters resting in the town’s oldest cemetery. In honor of the season, we’ll also delve into spine-tingling tales of alleged witches, demons, M**der, and monsters—all grounded in actual local history from our archives with a Falmouth twist.
Falmouth has a spooky side—come and see it for yourself! Whether you’ve joined us before or this is your first time, you haven’t experienced a tour like this.
Parking: Please park in the 300 Committee lot at 157 Locust Street. Use the crosswalk to cross Locust St. and head toward the large boulder of the Mariners' Memorial. Opposite the Memorial, across Mill Rd., join your tour guide at the top of Cemetery Lane.
Recommended for ages 13+ and those who can navigate uneven terrain.
Meeting Point: The Old Burying Ground tour begins at the top of Cemetery Lane. Don’t forget to wear long clothing, bring bug spray, and prepare for a hauntingly good time!
