- **Event Name**: Ghostwalk 2026
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 22 Oct, 2026 at 06:00 pm – Sat, 24 Oct, 2026 at 09:30 pm (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: Now in its 36th year, Ghostwalk is a family-friendly fall event that combines spirits from New Bern's past, talented local volunteer actors, historic sites, and a fun-filled, creative environment. For three evenings in October you’ll be able to step back in time and visit with ghosts of lively New Bernians, spirits, specters, and ordinary folks. You’ll visit 13 “ghost sites” in Cedar Grove Cemetery and on the porches of historic homes. In keeping with this year’s theme, “Voices of Freedom, Tales from 250 Years”, you will hear stories and meet characters from all across our 250 year history.

The 36th Annual Ghostwalk is Oct. 22-24 from 6-9:30pm at 13 ghost sites in historic New Bern.  Guides will lead you through the stops in Cedar Grove Cemetery, where you will hear entertaining stories based on real historical characters and events straight from New Bern’s past.  The remainder of the event is self-guided, with historical spirits telling you their compelling tales on porches in downtown New Bern.  Local historic churches offer a variety of low-cost meals for Ghostwalk visitors and prepare yourself to see some special guests creeping through the cemetery during your visit. Watch for something “thrilling” at the New Bern Academy Green.  And keep your eyes open for special apparitions like the Veri-Good Bakery (an oldie but a goodie).
