Dearwest Ghost Walker & Paranormal Enthusiast,

As the days grow colder, a new season of mystery and romance begins. This February, Seaside Shadows invites you to join us for our "My Bloody Valentine" Haunted History Tours in Mystic, CT—a journey into love stories that haunt the ages.

✨ What’s Waiting in the Shadows?

• The ancient, mysterious history of Lupercalia, the festival that inspired Valentine’s Day

• The dark and twisted origins of Cupid, the so-called angel of love

• Heart-wrenching Shakespearean tragedies of romance lost to time

• True tales of unrequited love and spectral connections beyond the grave

🌟 My Bloody Valentine begins on Imbolc (February 1st)—a Celtic holiday that celebrates the coming of spring and the liminal space between the seasons. Join us as we weave this mystical tradition into the start of a season of love, loss, and haunting stories.

📅 February Tour Schedule:

• Fridays at 7 PM

• Saturdays & Sundays at 4 PM & 7 PM
