About this Event
Want to meet the ghosts of Rochester’s past? The Landmark Society of Western New York will be happy to introduce you at Ghost Walk 2024, a nighttime guided walking tour on Friday, October 18th and Saturday, October 19, 2024.
This Halloween-season walking tour highlights macabre events, personalities, and places in Rochester’s history as it returns for its 28th season. Participants in The Landmark Society's Ghost Walk follow lantern-bearing guides down the darkened streets of an historic neighborhood and stop for six theatrical performances by the ghosts of Rochester's past, each enacting a gory true story. We promise experiences ranging from chills to laughter - and perhaps a tear or two.
The hour-long tours begin at Incarnate Word Lutheran Church, 597 East Avenue, corner of Goodman Street, with the first tour starting at 6:30 p.m., and last tour at 8:30 p.m. Advance reservations are strongly recommended with limited tickets at the door - but beware, the 2023 Ghost Walk sold out in advance! The cost for advance tickets is $22 going up to $25 if purchased the night of tour. The tour will proceed regardless or weather, "rain or moon shine.”
This event is not recommended for children under the age of 12 due to the length of the scenes and some gory, graphic content. The church is handicap accessible - but be aware that the walking tour proceeds over uneven slate sidewalks, and anyone utlizing a wheelchair may need to bring a person to assist them.
