It was a nice change to the "normal" kinds of activities that are done this time of year and an intersting way to teach history. The tour itself was one that helped to remember some of those who were buried there and did it with the upmost respect. While they did use the cemetery to put on this activity they had approval from the county and the association that runs the property and with CN Tourism's help that property will become better and better, I think.

I think if it had been done in the daytime and had been a historical tour it wouldn't have been so bad, but I would be offended if it were my family being used as a halloween backdrop
