Providence Ghost Tours
Providence Ghost tours began in early 2006, and now runs every night, June through November. The Ghost tour is a walking tour that goes through the streets of Providence, giving facts and stories about the haunted buildings. The founders have collected research about the history, ghosts, and legends of Providence. The journey discusses murders, suicides, and unusual deaths, giving the audience a sense of the darker side of Providence. The trip is 90 minutes long and begins every night at 7 p.m. The tour meets and ends at Prospect Terrace Park (60 Congdon Street) on the East Side of Providence. Tickets are $15 per person online, and $18 cash in person if there is availability. Child tickets, anyone under 13, are $10 cash in person.
Newport Restaurant Week
From Nov. 7 to Nov. 16, Newport and Bristol County Restaurants will be serving a fixed, three-course meal every day. A three-course lunch is $16, and a three-course dinner is $35. Participating restaurants will also feature special menus, promotions, and discounts.
