Darker Mount Hope Walking Tour, October 25th
October 25 @ 6:00 pm - 10:30 pm
$20.00
Explore Bangor’s dark side and take a walk amid the shadows during the Bangor Historical Society’s Darker Mount Hope Cemetery Tour, Friday and Saturday, October 24 & 25, 2025.
As the night deepens while you meander the paved paths, a cast of living souls will regale you with dramatic, moving, touching, mysterious, and even spooky stories —sprinkled with a bit of history, of course— about the permanent residents of Mount Hope. The nighttime walking tour of one of the oldest garden cemeteries in the country is a seasonal favorite.
