Events, Haunted Haddonfield Announcements, Haunted Haddonfield, News, Upcoming Event

This year’s Haunted Haddonfield Walking Tours are scheduled for October 13, 14, 20, 21, 27 and 28. All tours start at 7pm at Greenfield Hall. To save your place and register for tickets, please email us—and we will ask you to bring payment on the evening of the event. (NB. We have been experiencing some technical problems with the third party app that we normally use for ticketing.)

The tours are based on stories in William Meehan Jr.’s Haunted Haddonfield books. Bill was an accomplished researcher, writer, and public speaker with several published books and magazine articles. As always, it is possible to order Haunted Haddonfield Volume I and/ or Haunted Haddonfield II from our online store or from our office in Greenfield Hall.

The Historical Society of Haddonfield is planning a free, family-friendly, self guided Halloween Scavenger Hunt through downtown Haddonfield for the entire month of October. All of the Scavenger Hunt posters will be visible from the sidewalk, so participants can complete the scavenger hunt on their own schedule.

Virtual Book Launch Scheduled March 16 for “Haunted Haddonfield Volume II”

Events, Haunted Haddonfield, Lectures

The Historical Society of Haddonfield invites you to join us for a virtual book launch celebration on Tuesday, March 16 at 7 pm.

Our resident ghost and haunting expert, Bill Meehan, will share with us some of the stories from his long-awaited Haunted Haddonfield Volume II.

You can order the new book for $20 by clicking here.

Bill began collecting “new” stories of hauntings and eerie events almost as soon as the first Haunted Haddonfield was published. People on his tours would linger in order to share stores with him. Others called him with stories that they wanted to share with him for the next volume. Bill investigated a number of stories over the years and finally had enough “new” stories for a second volume.

Don’t miss your chance to be the first on your block to have a copy of this fun new book, and join us for a wonderful Zoom evening with Bill Meehan!

The book launch event is free, but donations are always welcome. You can register for the Zoom event through Eventbrite, and we will send out the link and brief instructions by the day of the event. Feel free to contact the Historical Society’s office with questions: [email protected] or 856-429-7375.

All tickets must be purchased in advance — no walkups. You should act fast to buy your tickets on EventBrite before they’re gone!

Unlike past years, we are limiting tour groups to 25 guests due to COVID-19 concerns. You can read all the details about the tours here.
