Walk amongst the dead in burying grounds nearly 400 years old, hear stories of those who's mortal remains lie beneach your feet, and listen to tales of many of the sordid practices that went along with them. Venture to the site of the biggest grave-robbing scandal in New England's history ... ask yourselves - are you afraid to be buried alive? Walk atop Boston's largest unmarked burying ground and hear tales of the tortures, punishments and executions that took place there.  See Boston's most haunted hotel - Omni Parker House.
