Join us on April 23, 2025 for a special investigation at the Colonial Inn during the 250th anniversary of the "Shot Heard 'Round the World." The inn was where arms for revolution were hidden and where the wounded soldiers were taken during the famous Battle. We will be investigating the Inn's most haunted areas, including Room 24, which was used as an operating room for injured soldiers, and Room 27, which served as a morgue.
