PITTSFIELD, Mass. — Beginning at dusk, this 90 minute lamplight tour explores the dark and mysterious side of the 175-year-old Pittsfield Cemetery.

 

Tens of thousands are buried in Pittsfield Cemetery, and half a dozen actually died on the premises. "City of the Dead" will explore fascinating and tragic stories from some of the more obscure lives of inhabitants. 

 

It will also lay bare the darker history of the place itself: the vandalism, assaults, exhumations, reinterments, and tragic deaths that have taken place within the cemetery itself.

 

Tours cost $10 and will be held at 6 p.m. on Oct. 25, 28, 29, 30. Enter from Onota Street and park on the right.
