2025-11-01 20:00 (America/New_York) | 13181 Hanover Courthouse Rd, Hanover, VA, United States, Virginia 23069
Join Hanover Tavern Foundation and Transcend Paranormal as we delve into the paranormal once more at two of Central Virginia’s most haunted locations: the Hanover Tavern and Pole Green Church!
Join us November 1st to investigate not one, but several locations in one night. The Hanover Tavern, the Old Stone Jail, the Historic Courthouse, and Pole Green Church are all tied together in history; and now you’ll be able to investigate each of them.
Our evening begins at the historic Polegreen Church. Built in 1747, the church stood for more than a century as a monument to the Hanover Dissenters and Samuel Davies in their struggle for religious libery in pre-revolution America. During 1864, Polegreen Church rested squarely in the center of Union and Confederate forces as they clashed. During the attack, Union forces overran Confederate outer positions and occupied the church. In efforts to dislodge the Union sharpshooters, Confederate artillery began firing upon the church, which ultimately led to the church being set ablaze. The property is now owned and maintained by the Historic Polegreen Church Foundation.
Afterwards, we will make our way to the historic Hanover Tavern. The earliest portion of the Tavern being built in 1791, there was a Tavern on the property spanning back to 1733. One of only a few surviving colonial-era Taverns in the United States, the Hanover Tavern hosted such historic figures as George Washington, Lord Cornwallis, Patrick Henry, P.T. Barnum, Marquis de Lafayette, and more. Both Union and Confederate troops utilized the Tavern on their way to and from the battlefields. Not only will you have the opportunity to investigate Hanover Tavern, but also the Historic Courthouse and Old Stone Jail as well – both hotbeds for paranormal activity.
For years, guests of these locations have reported eerie experiences of ghostly apparitions, phantom smells, and unexplainable noises. Are previous Hanover Tavern keepers still roaming the halls? Are early Hanover residents still making their way to the ghostly remnants of the historic Polegreen Church? It’s time to find out for yourself.
This is a fundraising investigation! All proceeds of this event directly and entirely benefit Hanover Tavern Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
