“Historic Haunts of Downtown Bethlehem Ghost Tours” continue weekends through October, presented by the Moravian Book Shop, 428 Main St., Bethlehem.

With only a candle to light your way through the darkened streets and a knowledgeable guide to lead you through history, you will experience the past and the paranormal of the gorgeous and (evidently) ghost-filled Historic District of Bethlehem. Fact or Folklore? We’ll let you decide. Information, reservations: 610-866-5481.
