About the event

"Dinner with the Dead" is the brainchild of members of the former "Haunting at Mill Hill" ghost walk that ran for 11 seasons at the Mill Hill Graveyard in Norwalk, CT. After a three year hiatus, the team has traded in the graveyard for a dinner table and are back with new stories, some old favorites, and an exciting theatrical experience!
