Tickets are $20 and are on sale now.

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 25 & 26, 2024.
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 nation is an annual fundraiser for the Bangor Historical Society and a seasonal favorite.

Tickets are sold for specific start times, every 20 minutes starting at 6pm.
Advanced Tickets are required. Tickets will go on sale at noon on Saturday, October 12th.

Guests should check in near the Superintendent’s Lodge at Mount Hope Cemetery (1048 State Street entrance, Bangor) no sooner than 20 minutes before your departure time.
The route is roughly one mile, and guests should plan to spend approximately 1.25-1.5 hours. We advise guests to dress warmly and bring a flashlight. Parking is available along both sides of the cemetery entry road.

Questions may be directed to the museum curator via email at curator@bangorhistoricalsociety.org or by calling 207-942-1900.
