💍 A Ghostly Glimpse: The Flagler & Kenan Wedding 👻👻

Step into Liberty Hall  on Saturday, October 25th, from 6:30 – 9:00 PM and witness the love and legend of the Flagler and Kenan wedding—a story told only by those who lived it… and those still in spirit.

For $5 per person (tickets sold at the event), stroll the yard and house with a guide, encountering members of the Kenan family from 1736 to 1906.

Never knowing who—or what—might appear, visitors often ask, “Do you have any ghosts here?” The real question is: “How many?”

Dare to step inside… and catch a ghostly glimpse of history.
