6th Annual Ghost Walk

6th Annual Ghost Walk

When the sun goes down, Farmville’s past comes back to life…For six years, the Farmville Community Arts Council has invited the brave, the curious, and the just-a-little-bit-foolish to step into the shadows for the Annual Ghost Walk. As darkness settles over town, follow your guide into the night and uncover stories that were never meant to be forgotten. Hear chilling tales of tragedy, mystery, unexplained happenings, and restless spirits said to linger long after their time has passed.

But be warned: not every story is just a story.

With every turn, the line between history and haunting begins to disappear. You may hear something behind you. You may see something you can’t explain. And by the end of the night, you may find yourself wondering whether you were ever truly alone.

When: October 15th -17th
&
October 22nd-24th

Tours start at 6pm and leave every 10 minutes

Special Theater Only Show October 21st | 7:00 PM

Family-friendly and child-appropriate, the Ghost Walk is designed to deliver spooky fun without the gore or extreme scares—making it a perfect Halloween-season adventure for the whole family.

The stories are waiting. The spirits are restless.

Do you dare to walk?
