Get ready to embark on a spine-tingling adventure through the spooky past of Boston's West End. Join us on October 26th for a chilling tour, led by museum staff, as we unveil the hidden mysteries and haunted tales of this historic neighborhood.


The tour begins at the West End Museum, located approximately where the infamous Leverett Street Jail once stood. The jail held public hangings, visible from the street and surrounding apartments, and housed many notorious inmates, including John Webster (convicted and hanged for the 1849 murder of George Parkman) and Don Pedro Gilbert (the last pirate executed in Boston). From here, we will wind through the neighborhood and its many eerie tales, from morgues and murders, to grave-diggers and ghosts.


Don't miss this opportunity to delve into the sinister side of the neighborhood's history. Tickets are limited, so secure your spot now for a night that promises thrills, chills, and a deeper understanding of the West End's haunted legacy.
