Meet at the Historic Hermitage Mansion, 700 Hermit Lane, Phila, PA 19128.

Join the Wild Women of the Wissahickon on this Twilight adventure to “The Lost Cave” of America’s first doomsday cult, at the edge of the known world. As Halloween approaches, the veil thins, spirits cut loose and roam through the woods. Is it the End of The World? Will the Wizard Kelpius return to his cave to fulfill his prophecy?

Costumes, which will serve as disguises to confuse the nefarious ghouls, are highly suggested. Come prepared to walk over uneven terrain in the failing light of the gloaming. Bring a camera to see if you can catch the likenesses of any apparitions on film!

Suitable for children over 12 years old with a responsible adult. No pets please.

Distance: 1 Mile

Level: Difficult
