ALBION – Local tales of dastardly deeds and miserable misfortunes will be told by ghostly guides on Saturday during a Haunted History of downtown Albion.

Community members will portray past residents in a candlelight tour of the downtown. The event runs from 5 to 8 p.m. with tours leaving every 15 minutes from 120 North Main St. The event ends with treats and hot apple cider.

Tickets are $5 each. The Albion Main Street Alliance is planning the event. Reservations are required and can be made by calling 589-2502 or by email at albionmainstreet@gmail.com.

(Editor’s note: Tom Rivers will portray George Williams, the tight rope walker from Brockport who was walking over the Erie Canal in Albion when the Main Street bridge collapsed on Sept. 28, 1859, killing 15 people.)
