CHARLOTTE'S SPOOKY HISTORY COMES ALIVE FOR THE NIGHT
Voices From The Past After Dark and Charlotte Area Paranormal Society
October 24 & 25, 2025
Historic Elmwood/Pinewood Cemetery
VOICES FROM THE PAST AFTER DARK
When you visit a cemetery and look at a tombstone, you will see
their birthdate and the day they died.
Tonight you will learn about the "dash", their life's darkest secrets,
or most gruesome horrors.
Voices From The Past AFTER DARK is a unique living history event that tells the stories of the residents of Elmwood and Pinewood cemeteries. You are invited to take a lantern guided "spirited stroll" through Charlotte’s two oldest historic cemeteries and immerse yourself in their world of murder, mayhem and horror.
But there is more! The Charlotte Area Paranormal Society will also be here with their ghost-hunting equipment to communicate with the restless "spirits" of Elmwood/Pinewood.
