Ghost Walk Tours

The Rogers Historical Museum announces the upcoming tour event, Ghost Walks, on October 18, 19, 24, 25 and
26, 2024. This evening event is a 45-minute guided walking tour through the museum grounds and historic
Downtown Rogers and features retellings of true, ghastly and grim stories from the Ozark region’s past.
Every town has mysteries and stories of murder, mischief, and mayhem. Rogers and the surrounding area are no
exception. During five evenings in October, the Rogers Historical Museum will offer Ghost Walks tours in historic
Downtown Rogers featuring true local stories of murder, mischief, and mayhem told by different costumed
interpreters. Walk among these “ghost” interpreters as they share witness accounts of dark tales of death taken
from obituaries printed in local newspapers from the 1870s to 1920s.
The first tour each evening begins at 7:00 p.m., with additional tours leaving every fifteen minutes, and the last
tour beginning at 8:15 p.m. The 45-minute tour will start at the Rogers Historical Museum and is suitable for older
teens and adults. Participants should wear comfortable shoes and be prepared to walk about one-quarter of a mile
at a slow pace. Each tour is limited to 16 participants and registration is required at a cost of $5 per person.
Tickets go on sale September 16 and may be purchased at the museum or rogershistoricalmusuem.org/ghostwalks.
