"This experience was very real. I loved how it was set up! I went in thinking I was going to get nothing and came out with an entirely different experience! It wasn’t scary. I felt comfortable even after the fact of feeling a presence." - May Event Attendee

"The genuineness of the leaders made an unbeliever a believer." - April Event Attendee

Experience the history and hauntings of Cohoes Music Hall at the venue's first ever series of paranormal events. Since it's reopening in 1974, the Music Hall has been shrouded in stories and legends of supernatural activity that have captivated the curiosity of staff and patrons alike. Join us for an evening of up close investigation as you explore the Hall's many spaces and secrets guided by the Northern New York Paranormal Research Society (NNYPRS). Get a chance to learn about and use the techniques and equipment used in real life paranormal investigations while exploring different areas in this historic theatre. Who knows what you might find!

Founded in 2001, NNYPRS is the 2nd oldest continuously operated paranormal research team in NY State. NNYPRS primarily uses scientific tools and techniques to investigate reports of hauntings.
