In the 1850s New York was gripped by the Fox sisters, who claimed to talk to the dead through mysterious knocks (the eldest, Leah, is buried at Green-Wood). This trolley tour traces the rival worlds of Spiritualism and stage magic, stopping at the graves of people who dabbled in séances, illusions and the supernatural.

Check in by name at the trolley by the Gothic Arch near the main entrance. Not recommended under 10; the trolley fits up to two wheelchairs (call a week ahead).
