An approximate 1 hour 50 minute lantern lit, 19th Century Attired Historical Ghost Tour. The small town of Harpers Ferry in West Virginia has a long bloody past that is reflected in the amount of paranormal activity that happens there.

The Ghost Tours of Harpers Ferry by "O’ Be JoyFull" is a 'Family & Dog Friendly' walking tour appropriate for most people of all ages.

The tour is approximately 1 & 3/4 to 2 hours in length and takes you around approximately 14 blocks of the historic "Lower Town" section of Harpers Ferry to view a number of sites and buildings that have had ghostly phenomenon reported in, or around them, over the years, along with some of the most important 'Historical Highlights' of Harpers Ferry's multi-level, multi-facited, multi-dimentional history.

You will be told about the unexplained, or ghostly phenomenon that has, or is still occurring, as well as stories of both legends and/or historical events, which may account for such unexplained ghostly happenings and encounters .

Of course, with Harpers Ferry’s violent past, especially during the American Civil War, many of the stories will tell of death, and some background history and historical highlights of Harpers Ferry is also an element of the tour.

Although the tour has often been described as "Spooky," and sometimes "Scary," we have found that "Scary" is a lot like "Beauty" and that "Scary is in the eye of the beholder." The tour is appropriate for almost everyone of all ages we have found that MOST CHILDREN are perfectly fine with the tour and its stories.*
