OCCOQUAN, Va. — A company fascinated by things that go bump in the night will offer ghost hunting tours in Occoquan.
Footsteps to the Past, a family-owned business in Northern Virginia, specializes in historical ghost tours in Alexandria and surrounding areas. Run by two members of the Potomac Valley Paranormal Society, this tour will take you on a smooth ride on the Miss Rivershore boat on the Occoquan River, while tour guides provide information and insights into the various aspects of ghost hunting.
But you don’t need to worry about handling weapons when it comes to ghost hunting – just some technological gadgets and a camera, as explained by the tour guides. Guests who attend the ghost hunting tour will have the opportunity to hear about the different kinds of spirits, or ghosts, along with methods on how to potentially capture their existence and hear tales and experiences that the tour guides have experienced with those who have “passed on.”
The highly energetic and friendly vibe of this tour may seem off course for a ghost hunting endeavor, but this tour will provide you with all of the necessary information you need to know for the next time you might find yourself in a graveyard or a haunted house.
These ghost hunting sessions in Occoquan will continue into the spring, and the company will host more ghost tours in other Northern Virginia areas in the coming months.
