Writer Historian Michael Bielawa leads a fascinating and slightly macabre Wicked Walk lantern stroll of historic downtown Bridgeport on October 30th. Friday, October 30, 2026 – 6:30 PM (Registration Required) Mysterious Bridgeport: Wicked Walking Tour of Historic Downtown Bridgeport Barnum Museum, 820 Main Street, Bridgeport, CT 06604 As twilight falls, history and legend walk side by side through downtown Bridgeport—where some stories are preserved in archives, and others refuse to stay buried.
Join the Barnum Museum and author Michael J. Bielawa for a lantern-lit walking tour through the hidden and haunting stories of historic downtown Bridgeport.
From Victorian-era crimes and unexplained phenomena to legends of hauntings and strange sightings, this evening stroll reveals a side of Bridgeport few ever see. Remarkably, these stories all unfold within walking distance of the Barnum Museum itself.
Based on research from local archives, historical societies, and interviews, this guided walk invites participants to experience the city’s mysteries where history and legend blur. As darkness settles over downtown, familiar streets take on new meaning, revealing the people, places, and unexplained stories that have become part of Bridgeport’s enduring folklore.
Tickets: $10 Members / $20 Non-Members Limited to 25 participants. Advance registration required.
Not recommended for children under 12. Please contact the Barnum Museum at [email protected] or call 203-331-1104 for more information.
