Have you ever wished there was something fun to do in New London on Friday night? How about going on a haunted tour of downtown New London.

We have some exciting news! We will be offering ghost tours on Friday nights.
Here is some information. When History Speaks: The Historic Haunts of New London

Join Traci Boiselle, a local history enthusiast, a paranormal investigator with 18 years of experience with The Atlantic Paranormal Society (TAPS), and the Co-Founder of When History Speaks for a look back into New London's haunted history. Tour the historic streets of the Whaling City, and hear the claims of paranormal activity while honoring the incredible lives of those passed. Learn how historic research and paranormal science can allow us to learn history from those that lived it. Who may still roam the streets and inhabit the city's significant buildings? What do they still have to teach us? Only time will tell.
