2020-10-24 - Burlington County - Bordentown - Bordentown Historical Society presents Harrowing History
Harrowing History
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 24, 2020 AT 7 PM – 8:30 PM
Bordentown is full of dark deeds and a hidden, sometimes gruesome, past. Harrowing History peels back the town's charming exterior and takes a hard look at the City's darker, tragic happenings.
Join us for an evening of macabre entertainment! Six of Bordentown's most shocking 19th and early 20th century true tales will come to life in an evening of theatrical storytelling, presented by the Bordentown Historical Society.
Costumed storytellers will transport you back in time to reveal stories about murder, mayhem, and tragedy as reported at the time. This storyteller performance will give you goosebumps and thrills!
You may have heard the rumors, now hear and experience the truth behind many of those stories.
Tickets are $20/per person and must be purchased online. Tickets will not be available for purchase on-site. Attendance is limited to 25 people per show.
