Paranormal Investigation at Historic Rosedale

The Charlotte Area Paranormal Society (CAPS) is back by popular demand at Historic Rosedale. On Saturday, October 11, 2025, visitors are invited to follow along in a scientific-minded ghost hunt of Historic Rosedale’s 200+ year old house and grounds!

Historic homes and grounds have long been rumored to be haunted. Historic Rosedale, which dates back to 1815, is no different. Using the latest investigative equipment (available for loan to attendees), CAPS will take guests on the search for evidence of “those who have chosen to remain behind.”

The grounds investigation takes place from 8:00-10:00 pm (with check-starting at 7:30). Participants, broken into four groups of no more than 20 each, will be stationed at various active areas of the site including the cellar of the 1815 home. This includes an introductory talk sharing the history and some of the stories of Rosedale’s ghostly residents. A separate, more close-knit investigation of the house interior is available from 10:30-12:30 with space for up to 15 guests. Tickets for both events can be purchased separately, and a limited number of combination tickets are available for both.

Executive director, Deanna Witte-Walker states, “October is the perfect time to discover the spirited past of Historic Rosedale. Come with an open mind, and you never know what you might discover.” She continues, “We are grateful to CAPS for their enthusiasm and knowledge.”

Historic Rosedale is located at 3427 N. Tryon St, Charlotte. Parking is free. Advance purchase of tickets is suggested. www.historicrosedale.org.
