Holiday hijinks.

Santa arrives on Main Street, Burlington, winter holiday season 1945. (We didn't know prior to seeing this pic that the jolly old elf even owned a helicopter!) Judging by the people in the windows and below, it looks to be part of a Christmas parade. Behind him what would eventually be LeZot, Muddy Waters, and Nectar's. The Helicopter advertises Girard's Bakery.

November 1st? How did we get here?

After a phenomenal ghost season, including a sold-out Halloween tour, it’s time to take a pause. But first, a huge shout-out to my friend and cohort Holli Bushnell, who saved Halloween night while I was home with my leg elevated nursing a blood clot. (Where’s a vampire when you need one?)
Holli, a Burlington cemetery sexton, historian, author, tarot reader, and end of life doula, (what can’t she do?) stepped in to regale our guests with spooky tales of the Queen City. If you were there, I know you had a blast! (Pics from previous tours)
