Why you should go…

After dark, Boston's 400 years of history get considerably spookier. Costumed gravedigger guides pilot the Trolley of the Doomed past haunted hotels and into centuries-old burying grounds, spinning tales of plagues, pirates, and the city's most notorious ghosts. Deliciously campy, genuinely historical, and the most fun you can have in a graveyard.
