Fright Nights
Chesapeake ghost walks pair history with mystery
D
o you know the difference
between a cemetery and a
graveyard? Do you know why
the living were originally warned
never to step on graves in either one?
If you've ever taken one of Mindie
Burgoyne's Chesapeake Ghost Tours,
chances are you do.
But if you've never taken one
of Burgoyne's 11 available haunted
walking tours across Maryland's
Eastern Shore, you probably don't
have a ghost of a chance of knowing
the answer to those or many other
eerily fascinating questions.
SHAKING CHANDELIERS
" I like to have the perfect balance
of both history and mystery in my
tours, " says Burgoyne, a resident of
12 | Cooperative Living | October 2021
Marion Station, Md., who began her
ghost walks in 2013 after writing
" Haunted Eastern Shore, " a book
that sold 50,000 copies.
The inspiration for the book came
from firsthand encounters Burgoyne
experienced in the Vance Miles
House, which she and her husband
purchased as their residence. Soon
after moving in, Burgoyne and her
family suspected they might not
be the only ones residing there.
Plates would suddenly fly and
crash into the walls, she says, while
mirrors would inexplicably break
into thousands of pieces. Chandeliers
would begin shaking and swinging
for no logical reason, and apparitions
of original owner Vance Miles would
mysteriously appear and then
suddenly vanish. " I'm very empathic
and extremely sensitive to emotional
energy, " she says.
Burgoyne began investigating
other supernatural accounts in
surrounding Eastern Shore areas and
discovered that they were numerous
and, in some cases, possibly
connected.
" What I discovered was that while
Col. Oswald Tilghman is said to haunt
the Talbot Courthouse in Easton;
his aunt likely haunts his old house,
Foxley Hall, also in Easton; and his
sister is likely haunting the Plim
Plaza in Ocean City. His great-greatgrandfather,
Tench Tilghman, is also
probably haunting the bridge near
St. Paul's Church in Chestertown, "
she says matter of factly.
