Cape May County - Cape May - Paranormal Pursuits Weekend @ Historic Cold Spring Village
Saturday - Sunday, July 7 - 8 - Cape May, Cape May County
Paranormal Pursuits Weekend
Fascinated by the supernatural? Not sure what the odd noise is at night? Visit Historic Cold Spring Village for 'Paranormal Pursuits': Spiritualism in the 1800s on Saturday and Sunday from 10:00 am - 4:30 pm. In addition to experiencing the Village's 27 restored, historic buildings dating from 1691-1912, guests can enjoy various workshops, demonstrations and tours which highlight the study of spiritualism and the paranormal of the 1800s.
During half hour Mini Ghost Walks lead by Bob Bitting guests may explore the Village’s own paranormal occurrences at 11:30 am, 1:30 pm and 3:30 pm beginning at the Dennisville Inn.
New this season, Precision Paranormal and EVP Paranormal teams will be here to share their findings of prior Village investigations. Long time investigators of the unknown in South Jersey look to debunk paranormal claims using EVP, video, Kinnex, and other instrumentation to measure the presence of the unexplained. Hear and see what they experienced while in the Village.
Meet Kelly Roncace author of “Haunted Gloucester, Cumberland and Salem Counties.” She will share her experiences in paranormal investigation and maybe give a sneak preview into her new book featuring Cape May County and happenings at the Village.
Meet Doug Hogate, Jr. cohost of internet’s Wild Fire Radio of Philadelphia and Founder of Jersey Unique Minds Paranormal Society. He will share his experience at the Village.
Gordon Ward will lecture on Historic Haunts in New Jersey. Gordon hails from North Jersey and has been involved in strange occurrences throughout the state. He is an author, podcast host, presenter and musician.
Returning to the Village is Greg Geraci with haunting spirit photography of local sites. Young and old may enjoy children’s crafts, story time, and our new Superstition Scavenger Hunt! Additional programs include hands-on demonstrations of divining rods, and lectures on Spiritualism and Phrenology of the 19th century.
Guests can also shop for good luck charms, talismans and jewelry. Have your fortunes told by card readers at an additional fee.
Historic Cold Spring Village is a non-profit, open-air living history museum that portrays the daily life of a rural South Jersey community of the Early American period. It features 26 restored historic structures on a 30-acre site. Tuesday through Sunday, from late June to early September, interpreters and artisans in period clothing preserve the trades, crafts and heritage of “the age of homespun.” Fun and educational activities for children are featured Tuesday through Sunday, with special events every weekend through September.
The Village is located on Route 9, three miles north of Victorian Cape May and a mile and a half west of the southern terminus of the Garden State Parkway. Admission during the season is $14 for adults and $12 for children ages 3 to 12. Children under 3 are admitted free. Unlimited free admission is available with Village membership. The Village Nature Trail at Bradner's Run is open to the public for free self-guided tours. For more information, call 609-898-2300, ext. 10, or visit www.hcsv.org.
