October 30 & 31 – Join a guide for intriguing tales of reported ghoulish encounters and chilling stories of historic properties along Broadway on a GhostWalk in Old Mauch Chunk (Jim Thorpe). Led by a costumed storyteller, the walks are all outside and last about an hour. Hosted by the Jim Thorpe Rotary Club, the Ghost Walks start in the lobby of the Inn at Jim Thorpe on 24 Broadway and cover a one mile round-trip to the Old Jail. Friday night’s walks start at 7:00pm and 8:30pm; Halloween Saturday night walks are at 7:00pm, 7:15pm, 8:30pm & 8:45pm.
