RICHMOND, Va. — This year Halloween falls on a weekend and there are plenty of things to do around town, but there is just one event that takes you down the haunted canal. Venture Richmond will host a special night of free hauntingly-narrated canal boat tours on Halloween Eve, Friday, Oct. 30.

The Eerie Canal Tours will feature haunting tales of Richmond’s past as passengers travel down the historic Kanawha Canal, drifting through the spooky sights and sounds of Richmond’s oldest and most historically haunted districts.

Little ghouls and ghosts in attendance will receive a special candy treat.

These special 30-minute tours leave every half hour (on the hour and half hour) from 6 -9 p.m., with the last boat departing at 8:30 p.m.

Boats depart from the Canal Turning Basin at 14th and Dock Streets (see map below). For more information call 804-788-6466 or visit http://www.venturerichmond.com
