Built in 1878, the Historic Jail and Sheriff's Residence, located at 20 West Central Ave in Delaware, OH, is home to several spirits. These Paranormal Tours are the perfect opportunity to find them or even discover new ones. Interested in learning more about this historic building? Come dive into a tour that covers both the history and haunts of the Historic Jail and Sheriff's Residence to learn more about what goes on after dark! Working with Tri-C Ghost Hunters, we will be holding Paranormal Tours from April through October! There are two tours per evening, and both will include a 2-hour paranormal tour of the building. Ticket price is $40. In order to provide the best ghost hunting experience for guests, the number of tickets available is very limited. Not all areas of the jail may be accessed. No one under 18 will be admitted, however 16- and 17-year-olds may be admitted with permission waivers signed by their parents or in attendance with a parent/guardian. No alcohol will be permitted. This is a lights-out investigation, and each participant should bring their own flashlight. Other investigation tools should be limited to small items such as pendulums, dowsing rods, and recording devices. Schedule for each evening: Group 1: Check in begins at 7:45 PM, intro at 8:00 PM, 2-hour investigation starts at 8:15 PM, debrief and departure by 10:15 PM.
