The event will serve as material for the author's new "13 Most Haunted" book on haunted cemeteries.

Known for its annual Halloween “Haunted Happenings” gathering, it’s no surprise that the historic Massachusetts seaport’s blood-stained history has often been overshadowed by the witch trials of 1692 and sensationalized by pop culture.
There will be a lot of walking, so wear comfortable shoes and dress appropriately for the weather.
