In honor of Halloween, join Historic Albany Foundation, Discover Albany and fellow members of the CDCSS for a special, sinister tour exploring the Dark Side of downtown Albany. This guided tour will delve into the stories behind the buildings you see every day in the downtown area of Albany, peeling back the layers of history to discover tales of true crime, spooky stories, and murderous mysteries.
Hear about an elevator accident, a murder at the luxurious Ten Eyck Hotel, attractions at a long-gone curiosity museum, and much more.
Meeting point - Outside McGeary's, 4 Clinton Square, Albany, NY 12207.
There will be a stop at a local pub midway through the route for a tipple.
Net proceeds will go to benefit the Historic Albany Foundation. The tour lasts approximately 90 minutes.
