Spirits in October

This one-hour guided tour among Victorian memorials and greenery includes actors in costume at various gravesides bringing history to life. Many of the cemetery’s early “residents” were Civil War soldiers. Spirits in October is not a scary ghost tour. It’s about honoring and sharing the stories of the fascinating people who came before us to make Macon what it is today. The Georgia Civil War Heritage Trails® interpretive marker located here, entitled “Macon Defensive Fortifications,” describes how the city was defended (https://www.civilwarheritagetrails.org/ga-civil-war-trails-map/ga-wilsons-raid.html).
