Online Ghost Tours

October 2, 2020

8:00 PM - 9:00 PM

It starts with the sounds—creaking floors and slamming doors, fading footsteps down empty halls—a feeling of being watched, tingling taps on the shoulders, spectral shapes crouched in corners or gathered in front of fireplaces long gone cold. Tricks of the imagination in an old building … or something else?

Join us online as veteran tour guide Robert Oakes leads you through the darkened halls of The Mount, sharing tales of the many eerie encounters that have been reported here for years. Watch from the comfort and safety of your home as Oakes leads you, live, through some of the most haunted corners of the estate, including areas that are off-limits during our in-person tours.

This one-hour experience features a walk-through of the House, followed by a Q&A session.

Robert Oakes has led ghost tours at The Mount for 10 years, and is the author of Ghosts of the Berkshires (The History Press, 2020).
