True tales of murder, mischief and misadventure, pulled from our archives.
From the horrors of the Chester County Prison, to the cold-blooded killers tried at the courthouse, to explosions and other disasters that have wrought havoc in the borough, West Chester’s streets and alleys have witnessed two hundred years of spine-chilling history. The historians and educators at the Chester County History Center will share these stories–and more–with visitors on this 90 minute walking tour. These are not ghost stories; these are true tales of terror pulled from our own archives.
Each tour will be held entirely outdoors. Please dress for the weather and wear comfortable shoes; tours run rain or shine.
Please Note: once purchased, tickets are NON-REFUNDABLE. Your admission fee supports the educational mission of the Chester County History Center. Thank you! (If you’re having trouble getting tickets for the date and time you want, please reach out to us at jgreen@mycchc.org.)
