Walking Ghost Tour, Investigation at Stanford Inn with Apollo Paranormal Investigations & Psychic-Medium Gemini Rose
AND Fantasy of Flight’s nightFlight

This unique event combines two ghost haunting tours and locations – At Bartow’s Stanford Inn you will challenge your senses from fabulous food and lodging to ghost hunting and the possibility to interact with the Spirits of the Night. Friday begins with a walking ghost tour and a “behind the scenes” tour of the 150 year old Historic Courthouse where you will learn the “haunt history” and strange happenings followed by reviewing “evidence” from previous paranormal investigations at the Inn. Saturday night, you’ll travel to Fantasy of Flight for “nightFlight”, an exciting after-hours program that offers adventurous visitors four full hours to “Explore the Unexplained.” Apollo Paranormal Investigations’ Cliff Kennedy says, “On a paranormal activity scale of 1 to 10, Fantasy of Flight’s aircraft collection rates an astonishing 11″. This weekend of supernatural exploration and psychic fun is limited to a small number of guests – double occupancy is required – so book early.

Cost: 149.00 a night per person, double occupancy, with a 2-night minimum. Includes room, dinner Friday night, lunch on Saturday, and Sunday brunch. Also includes tour tickets for The Stanford Inn’s Spirits of the Night tour and Fantasy of Flight’s nightFlight. Tour T-Shirt included.
