If you're interested in history, period architecture, and local legends, these tours capture it all. We've dusted off some great stories and we've interviewed the locals to put together our memorable walks. Some of our stories haven't been told before or written about in books and come from local business owners and local residents who have relayed their first hand stories and experiences. In addition, we've been on local investigations with nationally known psychics and paranormal investigators and found amazing results.

We specialize in many subjects in history, legends and lore throughout New England. We may have something coming up in your area next!
