Huntsville Ghost Walk

For over two hours last Saturday evening, the Huntsville/Madison au pairs and I walked around downtown Huntsville, listening to ghost stories. The night was a little chilly, but not uncomfortable, and we were one small part of a larger group, held captive by our tour guide, Kevin, as he brought Huntsville's past to life for us. We heard stories about corruption, death, and greed. Kevin had many stops on his tour, and each time, as Kevin introduced the building in front of us and began his ghost story, all eyes turned towards the edifice, eagerly searching for some indication that something otherworldly had joined our tour. Unfortunately, we did not experience any spirit activity, but we certainly enjoyed learning some of the history of our town. Although the ghost tour season is over for this year, some of us are all the more eager for the tours to begin again next June so we can experience the other tours!

Au Pairs in attendance: Gaby, Vero, Laetitia, and Pam.
