The Allentown Association presents Haunted Allentown
Walking Tour of Haunted Sites, Psychic Readings and Other Spooky Events
Saturday, October 20, 2007
12 - 7 pm
The Addams Family. Black cats wandering the streets. A full moon casting an eerie light on the
turrets and gargoyles of a dark mansion.
Ghosts of former cemeteries rising up to haunt the houses built atop
their gravesites.
October and Halloween
bring thoughts of the supernatural to mind.
This year, the Allentown Association has teamed with noted author and
paranormal expert Mason Winfield to bring these thoughts to life with the first-ever
Haunted Allentown
event on Saturday October 20, 2007, from noon until 7 p.m. Held just one day only, Haunted Allentown features a host of entertaining experiences to welcome
the myths and mysteries of the season.
Events Headquarters will
be at the “Haunted” Hamlin House, 432
Franklin St. (between Virginia & Allen Sts.)
with treats for the whole family. Wine
tasting, warm cider, donuts, and more await, along with the opportunity to have
a reading by some of the area’s top psychics including Cassandra Joan. With it’s Mansard roof, tall windows, stone
porch and long, narrow hallway, Hamlin House has all the trappings of a Hollywood set for a ghost story.
The main attraction will
be a new twist on the popular Secrets of Allentown house tour that draws
thousands of visitors each year.
Haunted Allentown
will offer self-Guided Haunted Walking Tours sites throughout the Historic
District. Each location will feature
interpreters that recount the site's haunted history. Many of the sites will offer interior tours,
while some will be “porch” tours only with an interpreter telling the ghoulish
tales associated with the property. For
those with their own ghosts at home who are looking for information on dealing
with supernatural guests, one site will feature high-tech ghost-hunting
demonstrations, given by the Ghosthunters of Rolling Hills. Naturally, there will be a total of thirteen
sites to visit.
