Scare up some chills and thrills at the Monteith House Museum's Trolley of Terror this October!**Trolley of Terror:**
**Dates:** October 16, 17, 23, and 24
Prepare yourself for a spine-tingling adventure on the **Trolley of Terror**, where history meets horror in the heart of downtown Albany! Step aboard the eerie, old-fashioned trolley and let your imagination run wild as your expert guide spins tales of terror that have haunted this historic area for centuries.
As you glide through the shadowy streets, you'll pass by more than 15 haunted hotspots—each with its own dark and mysterious story. From ghostly apparitions lurking in the courthouse lawn to unexplained phenomena in the historic buildings, you'll hear it all. Keep your eyes peeled, though—you never know when a restless spirit might make an appearance!
But the chills don’t end there. After the trolley tour, you'll be escorted into the infamous **Monteith House**, Albany's oldest and one of the most haunted locations in the downtown area. Inside this creaky, candle-lit pioneer house, you’ll gather around to hear even more chilling tales of ghostly encounters that have left visitors with goosebumps for generations. With every creak of the floorboards and flicker of the lights, you’ll feel the presence of those who never left.
This ghoulish experience lasts approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes, but the memories—or nightmares—might just last a lifetime. Dare to join us?
The Trolley of Terror event is a fundraiser to help support Monteith Historical Society's mission to continue to preserve Albany's first frame house and its collection of pioneer artifacts, as well as provide educational opportunities for the public.
Costumes are always encouraged!
