Knox’s Headquarters has announced “It was dark back then,” a free 45-minute scary theatrical presentation set for Saturday, October 22nd. In the spirit of 18th century gothic novels, costumed interpreters from the New Windsor Cantonment and Knox’s Headquarters State Historic Sites in Orange County, NY, will act out a haunting tale.
The eerie night-cloaked grounds of the historic Knox’s Headquarters, the 1754 Ellison home, serve as a stage for this presentation about ghosts and strange happenings. Performances will begin every 45 minutes and this play is recommended for visitors 12 years and older.
Over the years many staff members at Knox’s Headquarters have claimed to have seen spectral visages. Whether it was a passing glimpse out of the corner of their eye or just an uncomfortable lump in their stomach, they could not help, but feel, at times, that someone was watching them.
This program will take place from 6 to 10:30 pm, reservations are required. Knox’s Headquarters is located at 289 Forge Hill Road, in Vails Gate, (New Windsor, NY). For more information or to make a reservation, call (845) 562-7141 ext. 22 or click here.
