knox headquartersKnox’s Headquarters in Vails Gate, Orange County, NY, will host a 45-minute scary theatrical presentation between 7 and 10 pm on October 26, and will offer self guided ground tours.

The 1754 Ellison home will serve as a stage for this macabre presentation about ghosts and strange happenings. This program lasts approximately 45 minutes and is recommended for visitors 12 years and older. Reservations are required and visitors are asked to arrive in the parking lot at least 10 minutes prior to their scheduled start time. Admission is free. 

Over the years many staff members at Knox’s Headquarters have claimed to have seen spiritual beings. Whether it was a passing glimpse out of the corner of their eye or just an uncomfortable lump in their stomach, something made them feel like someone was watching them.

Knox’s Headquarters is located at 289 Forge Hill Road, in Vails Gate, New York. For reservations and more information call (845) 561-1765 ext. 22.
