You don't have to be on a ghost tour for a Ghost to Find You:)

              So if you cannot make Ghost Tours...

            come on a daytime History Tour! 

The Old Jail             Museum

No condensation was noticeable

Nothing was in the mirror.

A hundred people sat in this room and saw nothing.

Until, the person who tool the picture went home. looked at her pictures on the computer, & 

saw writing in the mirror!

Thank you for making our past Ghost Tours a Success:

Yes... we have Ghosts! Friendly Ghosts, that is!

They usually make their presence known to people who are not looking for them:)

And.. sometimes they can make their presence known on regular daytime tours!

Will you be the lucky one to have a ghost find you?
