New year, new ghosts! Just in time for Halloween, get spooky with a tour of the St. Peter's UCC Cemetery (8530 Harms Rd.), featuring some of Skokie’s local legends! Pick up your ghost guide at the cemetery’s entrance on Harms Rd. and set off among the tombstones to meet our friendly graveyard ghosts and hear their stories about Skokie's early days. Tours leave the gates every 15 minutes, with last entry at 11 a.m. Tour lasts about an hour.
Ages 5 and up. Fee: $10.
Pre-register online here by Oct. 25 or pay at the gate. Call Skokie Heritage Museum at (847) 929-8001 or email eengland@skokieparks.org with questions or to volunteer as a ghost.
Walking tours take place in light rain. In the event of severe weather, an indoor equivalent will be provided at the Skokie Heritage Museum (8031 Floral Ave.).
