Halloween Cemetery Tours will feature fascinating history and fun trivia


The North Berrien Historical Society invites the public to attend our Halloween Cemetery Tours on Saturday, October 23. On a stroll of beautiful, historic Coloma or Watervliet Cemetery, hear captivating stories about people from the past and answer fun Halloween trivia questions.


Who was the founder of Coloma? Who used to own the farm where Watervliet High School now sits? Who were our most well-known residents a century ago? These are just a few of the stories that will be told at the graves in the Coloma and Watervliet Cemeteries. The tours will also feature historic pictures to tell spooky tales of ghosts, criminals, UFOs, and other mysterious happenings from North Berrien history.

Coloma Cemetery Tour begins at 1:00pm and Watervliet Cemetery Tour begins at 3:00pm. Both tours are free of charge. The programs will go on in rain or shine, so guests should dress appropriately for the weather.
