Spirits Alive Walk Among the Shadows

Portland, ME

A family-friendly costumed cemetery event at Portland's historic Eastern Cemetery where actors portray real residents, peaking each Halloween season.

Lantern light pools among the leaning headstones of Eastern Cemetery as costumed figures step from the past to tell their stories. The Walk Among the Shadows draws on real history, with 2025 marking the 250th anniversary of the Bombardment of Falmouth. Educational rather than gory, it is built for families and the curious.
