Shadows of Green River Academy

Ghost Tours of one of Kentucky's Most Storied Landmarks 

Are you the kind of person that loves the more adventurous and darker side of history? We have just the evening for you! 

When twilight falls on the quiet town of Elkton, Kentucky, something eerie stirs within the old Green River Academy. Guests will step beyond the threshold of time and into a world where shadows of the past linger — where voices of long-ago students, professors, and townsfolk echo through candlelit hallways. Shadows of Green River Academy is a haunting, historically-inspired theatrical experience that brings to life the real people who once walked this historic site — and the frightening echoes of their demise. Guests will explore the Academy’s ancient halls, transformed into a living stage, where true tales of duels, war-torn heartbreak, epidemics, and loss build the narrative of one of Kentucky’s most storied landmarks. 

Begin your journey at Elkton-Todd County Park, where hayrides will ferry guests to the Academy. Enjoy seasonal treats like cider, cookies, and candy, with entertainment and food trucks available at the staging area.

Join us — if you dare — for an unforgettable night where history and haunting collide.
