‘Ghost Walk’ Haunts Pumpkin Festival This Year
Published: October 14th, 2009

NORWICH – The 11th Norwich Pumpkin Festival is right around the corner and once again, the Chenango Community Players will be sponsoring the 3rd annual Ghost Walk in conjunction with the Festival. The Ghost Walk takes place on Friday night, Oct. 23 – the first night of the Pumpkin Festival, and begins at the Emmanuel Episcopal Church on West Main Street in Norwich. As you arrive at the parish house, there will be a sign-in to wait for the Grim Reaper. The Reaper will then escort you, by lantern light, over to Hayes Street for ghostly tales. Neighbors on Hayes Street open their homes to the “ghosts” who seem to appear by magic as you approach the front doors. Tales of woe and times-gone-by are revealed to the listeners, and you just may feel a shiver up your spine as you learn about some of the former residents of Chenango County. Once the ghost stories are complete, your Grim Reaper guide will then lead you back to the parish house at the church for refreshments.
