Learn about the ghosts that still linger in Jacksonville’s historic district while learning a little history about the buildings, their occupants, and life in a gold rush town. Join Historic Jacksonville, Inc. for a very “spirited evening” on a guided Haunted History walking tour on Friday, August 9.
Tours leave from the Jacksonville Visitors Center at the corner of North Oregon and C streets and last about 1 hour. Choose from 2 different tours. The Courthouse route is offered at 7 and 7:30pm and features brothels, epidemics, and hangings. The Britt Hill tour is offered at 7:15 and 7:45pm and highlights murder, arson, saloons, and Oregon’s oldest Chinatown. And both tours have lots of haunted houses! Tours are $10 per person and reservations are required.
