Saco Spirits Spooky Downtown Walking Tour

October 26 2024

Have you ever wondered what spirits might be lurking after dark in Saco? Saco Museum Historian, Anatole Brown, has uncovered eerie tales from the crypts that are sure to send a chill down your spine!

Join Saco Main Street for a spine-tingling downtown walk. Stops include Pepperell Park Cemetery where you may encounter the Lady in White, a ghostly apparition who has haunted the park since 1881.

There will be four stops along the way to enjoy an assortment of spook-tacular drinks and savory bites. The first haunt will be Pacifico where participants can enjoy a handcrafted cocktail, mocktail, or soda; next stop is at Finest Kind for snacks and beverages. From there, travels will lead to The Saco Scoop for more fabulous creations and the final stop will be at The Townhouse Pub, which is nestled beside the oldest house in Saco.

For just $75, you will enjoy a drink or treat at each stop and a spooky guided tour.

This is a 21+ event. There is a 20-person capacity limit for this tour.
