Haunted Tour of Historic Buildings And Sites In Hatboro Taking Place On Saturday

HATBORO, PA — October is the time of year for chills and frights.

As Halloween approaches, one local historical group is treating (or tricking?) community members to a tour of Hatboro's oldest buildings, some of which are reputed to be haunted.

This coming Saturday, the Hatboro Historical Commission will host the Hatboro Haunted Historical Tour, giving folks two opportunities to learn about the borough's many historic buildings, some of which have stories involving ghostly encounters that have occurred within the structures.

Two tour groups will take place: the first one at 7 p.m. and the second one at 8 p.m.

Tours will depart from Miller Meadow, which is located along South York Road (Route 263) near Horsham Road.

Southeastern Pennsylvania teems with areas reputed to be haunted just by the nature of the fact that it is old and has seen its share of tragedy.

A simple Internet search of 'haunted southeastern Pennsylvania' returns a vast number of results highlighting various places throughout this part of the commonwealth and beyond that are considered to be the sites of haunted happenings.
