October 24 & 25, 2025

Where lanterns pierce the dark, forgotten tales emerge.

Guided by the flickering glow of lantern light, costumed storytellers will lead you through the streets and alleys of Elizabethtown where the rich history of the people, places, and events of Elizabethtown's past will be revealed.

Coble House where you will enjoy refreshments along with Victorian era music and dancing.
