Looking for something different to do this Halloween? How about a visit to a REAL haunted house? Head on over to N. Tryon street for the Rosedale Plantation Ghost Walk.

Historic Rosedale plantation was built in 1815 and served as a private home for several prominent families.

The ghost walk takes place on ONE NIGHT ONLY...10/30/2010. Tickets are $10.00 each and the proceeds support the ongoing preservation of this historic treasure.

See press release below for additional details. Purchase tickets through the Rosedale website, here.

5:30pm

Guests should gather around the tables under the Swamp Chestnut toward the rear of the home. This enchanted tree stands close to where the slave quarters and original smithy once existed. You will walk the same paths of those who worked, lived, and died at Rosedale. Some believe the former inhabitants still reside at Rosedale. Experience the energy of the plantation while hearing stories of those who have experienced strange encounters. What will you see, hear, smell... will someone tap your shoulder or tug your sleeve? Is it Elbert, the former “conjure man” or Archibald Frew, the ill-fated original owner, or Cherry the nurse and root healer? Advance reservations encouraged. We suggest participants bring a small flashlight. Tour approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes.
No refunds under any circumstances
$10.00 per person
