DELAWARE CITY
(Sept. 19, 2013) – The very popular Paranormal Adventures program
returns to Fort Delaware this fall. Visitors will get a taste of the
paranormal investigative experience with the help of the Diamond State Ghost
Investigators, a volunteer group leading the program. Participants assist
the ghost hunters in investigating various areas of Fort Delaware where
paranormal activity has been suspected, along with experienced investigators.
Visitors are welcome to bring their own equipment as long as it is easily
transported.
Visitors leave from the
Delaware City dock on Sept. 27, Oct. 4, 5, 11, 12, 18, 19, and 25 at 6:30 and
9:30 p.m. and on Oct. 26 at 6:30 p.m. On Oct. 27, die-hard ghost hunters can
experience an extended Paranormal Investigation from 9:30 p.m. until 2:30
a.m., also leaving from the Delaware City dock. Paranormal programs are
for adults and children 12 and over.
Areas of Pea Patch
Island’s Civil War fortress to be investigated include the mess hall, officer's
kitchen, ordnance room area, officer’s kitchen and the west end of the Endicott
section. The evening will start with a short introduction at the entrance to the
fort, after which small groups will be led by a park interpreter to the various
areas of investigation.
The three-hour
investigations (including boat travel time to the fort) are available by
reservation only and usually sell out. The cost per participant is $40.
Participants should dress appropriately for weather and walking; no open-toed
shoes. This is a rain or shine program and will only be canceled in the event of
severe weather making the boat ride unsafe. The Extended Paranormal Adventure
cost is $100 per person.
Reservations may be made
by calling 1-877-987-2757 or online at destateparks.com. More information about Fort Delaware
is available by calling 302-834-7941.
Do ghost exist? I always believed the presence of "spirits" in the world has been a bit exaggerated. I hear from most people that they are real but none give evidence of their existence.
