Spirit Tour

Announcing the 4th Annual “Spirits of Pittsboro’s Past” Walking Tour

What spirits lurk in downtown Pittsboro? Experience an out of the ordinary historical walking tour! In the spirit of Halloween, participants will be in search of ghostly spirits from the town’s past. Walk in the footsteps of those who came before us to see the town and its buildings and sites in a new way.

On three October evenings, October 23, 24, and 25, participants will be led through a one-mile tour of downtown Pittsboro visiting historical sites and learning local folklore while encountering “spirits” along the way. 

The tours will begin at the Historic Chatham Courthouse promptly at 5:30 pm. The tour will take about two hours. We will move at a leisurely pace and will encounter spirits along the way who will tell their past stories. Open to participants age 12 and older. Tours are held rain or shine. In the event of severe weather, the tour will be rescheduled and participants will be notified of any changes.

A total of 60 tickets per tour date will be sold. Tour participants will be divided into three small groups for each tour. The experience will be the same for all small groups for each tour date. 

Tickets will be $25 for CCHA members and $30 for nonmembers. Members may order guest tickets at the member price. Remember, you must log in to your member profile to get the member price. Tickets will be available to members only from September 13 to September 30. If tickets remain after that date, public (non-members) ticket sales will begin October 1. We welcome and encourage you to join the CCHA to enjoy early ticket access and obtain the discounted rate. 

Tickets are available online only. Online payment by credit card is required to register on this site. Use the buttons on this page to choose your tour date.

Space is limited, so don’t miss your chance to join us for an unforgettable evening. Gather your friends and family, bring your courage, and prepare for an evening of encounters with historical spirits!
