Haunted Ohio Statehouse Tours
Conductors guide visitors by oil lantern light through the dimly lit limestone corridors and darkened chambers of the Ohio Statehouse. Along the tour, guests encounter historical exhibits and ghostly apparitions, including President Lincoln in an unfinished dance with Kate Chase, a weeping lady in gray, and an assassinated president. Special activities take place before each tour, and seasonal treats are offered in the museum shop.
