October 8 & 9, 8 pm
$10 advance tickets are recommended and can be purchased online at CornstalkHeights.com or in several Harriman retail shops [a complete list].

Last year's tour included: visits to magnificent historic homes known for their ghosts; stories of actual known encounters including the "watchman"; and homeowners' first-hand accounts of their own ghostly experiences. The tour will begin and end at the Temperance Building with the last tour being inside the Temperance Building, which is widely known for its haunts.
