Unearthly Tales from Pella's Past

October 24, 2025
4:30 pm to 7:00 pm

Attend, ye curious souls! As the gloaming descends, a journey through the solemn grounds where our departed rest shall commence. Come the morrow's light, we shall stroll through the heart of town, eager to unearth more of that spine-tingling history. Amidst the aged stones and cobbled streets, tales of uncanny occurrences from Pella's bygone days shall be shared, enough to prickle the skin.
 

Friday, October 24

Doors open at 4:30pm

Trolley runs from 5-7pm​

Take the tour at your leisure. Begin at the Pella Opera House, where your ticket includes a beverage from the bar. You will hear about the alleged Opera House Ghost while enjoying the spooky sounds of the Barton Theatre Organ.

Enjoy a trolley ride to Oakwood Cemetery, where you will wander through the headstones to hear the interesting and sometimes macabre stories of Pella townsfolk of yesteryear.​

Your tour ends with a trolley ride back to Butcher's Brewhuis, where you will hear one final tale. Finish the evening by enjoying libations as you wish.
