What makes Haunted Wiscasset Ghost Walking Tour a unique experience ?
Start at the Lincoln County Courthouse, built in 1824. On the National Register of Historic Landmarks, it’s the oldest operating courthouse in Maine. Witnesses claim at least two ghosts roam its stately halls and one of them may even have been caught on video.
Ghost stories abound in the elegant and historic mansions that line this regal lane. A charming stroll up and down this residential road is a who’s who of Wiscasset apparitions and local legends.
Town tradition tells of the time when this manor was abandoned. Local lore claims it became the unlikely stomping ground for two supernatural squatters – a witch and a warlock.
Erected in 1805, this former bank once boasted state-of-art security for the time. Unfortunately one booby-trap had deadly consequences. The story of that tragedy may explain one of the ghosts thought to linger amongst the stacks.
The Manasseh Smith House Mary Moody Emerson, the aunt of famous writer and Transcendentalist Ralph Waldo Emerson was a frequent guest in this former home. Her morbid musings may have inspired Ralph to do the unthinkable. Or was it a fear of vampires?
The Sunken Garden is an enchanting grotto, this hidden gem was built from the foundations of an old hotel that burned to the ground. The bewitching setting is a perfect backdrop to spin true tales of Wiscasset witchery.
In the 1800s, a supply warehouse for ships known as a chandlery, this building also served as a makeshift morgue for the bodies of those who didn’t make it to shore alive. The employees of today’s cafe have witnessed many mysterious things, especially in the early morning hours.
In 1978, this former art gallery (Gallery One Eleven) was labelled officially haunted in a federal travel guide published by the U.S. government. It has housed restaurants, galleries, antique shops, and, according to many witnesses, is also home to a ghostly misogynist.
