This was a great experience for me and my 10 year old son. The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. Was an enjoyable mix of history and spooky stories. The other people in our group were very friendly and kind to my young boy. He was the only child. Highly recommend as a family night out. We are planning our next trip.

Hearing the stories and exploring the cemetery. Reading the old tombstones gave us a glimpse into the lives of people who are long gone and their story to help keep them alive.
