Join us for an enhanced Halloween version of our popular tour of Falmouth’s Old Burying Ground, where we’ll explore the gravesites of fascinating characters resting in the town’s oldest cemetery. In honor of the season, we’ll also delve into spine-tingling tales of alleged witches, demons, murder, and monsters—all grounded in actual local history from our archives with a Falmouth twist. Falmouth has a spooky side—come and see it for yourself! Whether you’ve joined us before or this is your first time, you haven’t experienced a tour like this.
