Red Cloak Haunted History Tours announces local October dates

Mon, 09/28/2015 - 11:00am

Discover history and mystery on a lantern lit walking tour led by The Lady in the Red Cloak. Tour the streets of Boothbay Harbor and Wiscasset this October and get into the “spirit” of the season.

Sally Lobkowicz, an experienced genealogy researcher — and the original Lady in the Red Cloak - began looking into local ghost stories after hearing tales from in-town residents and businesspeople.

“I discovered that there are quite a lot of buildings that people feel are haunted in each of these towns, and some of the stories are quite chilling,” she said. “There are also plenty of interesting historic tales to recall.”

These entertaining 90-minute walks on the supernatural side are by reservation only.

Tours in Boothbay Harbor will be held on Monday, Wednesday (except Oct. 7) and Friday at 7 p.m.

In Wiscasset there are two dates only: Thursday, Oct. 22 and 29.

Call 207-380-3806. Tickets are $15 for adults and $7 for children.
