A special feature to the day's festivities is our after-hours event called, "An Evening of Spirits: Celebrating the Ghosts of the Customs House." The main theme of the evening is Haunted Hamilton's Ghost Walk of the Customs House, celebrated beforehand with the serving of wine, cheese, crackers, and fruit and an opening ceremony to evoke and summon the spirits of the building. The Tour, led by your Ghostly Guides will prove to be interactive as guests are welcomed to conduct investigations of their own as they make their way throughout the building, from attic to basement.
