Come to Crystal Cave in October and experience cave tours by a different light. The Halloween “Ghost” Lantern Tour is a re-creation of the original Crystal Cave tour from the 1870s, guided by the glow of hand-held lantern light. Guides wearing Victorian clothing relate folklore and ghost stories that occurred at Crystal Cave from the 1800s to the present that have never been part of the modern day tour.
Come prepared to be spooked as darkness adds to the mystery! Tour dates for this unique tour are Oct. 10, 16, 17, 23, 24 and 30 at 5:30 p.m.

This is the second year that Dave Kline & the Mountain Folk Band will perform inside Crystal Cave as part of Music Fest.
