Historic Oakland Cemetery receives many visitors each day, but only at Halloween do the gates stay open after dark. Witness the magnificent final resting place of Atlanta’s sons and daughters during “Capturing the Spirit of Oakland” 2012 Halloween Tours. Join them this year and hear first-hand accounts about their city’s past, narrated by a host of Oakland’s eternal “residents.” You’ll also see gorgeous candlelit mausoleums in this one-of-a-kind annual tradition. Bring a flashlight and wear comfortable walking shoes. Enjoy refreshments for sale and browse Oakland’s Museum Shop for unique finds. Adults: $20.00; Children 4-12 years of age: $10; Children 3 years of age and under: Free. An additional Ticketleap Service charge will be applied at the time of purchase.
