Sep 4    Ghost Tour
Step into the shadows of Fredericksburg’s past on a 75-minute winter ghost tour led under the eerie glow of the moon. Bundle up as we explore the city’s most haunted streets.

The tour begins at Historic Tales & Tails Bookstore Café, where you can purchase a drink (or pick up a spooky book) before setting out into the night. Along the way, you’ll hear true stories drawn from eyewitness accounts, historic records, and generations of local lore. This isn’t a jump-scare tour—it’s a chance to connect with the lives (and afterlives) of those who shaped this city.

This special winter walk includes a rare stop at the Masonic Cemetery, typically closed to the public, adding an extra layer of mystery to the evening.

We’ll cover about 1 mile at a relaxed pace with frequent stops. Feel free to take photos—past guests have captured strange mists, glowing orbs, and unexplained figures.

Sep 11 - Sep 13    2026 CVBT Annual Conference- CVBT 30th Anniversary - Second Fredericksburg “The Forgotten Front”

Come Celebrate 30 Years of CVBT Preserving our History!

CVBT 30th Anniversary Special!

First 125 paid attendees will receive a free copy of Chancellorsville’s Forgotten Front – The Second Battle of Fredericksburg by Chris Mackowski and Kristopher D. White

Continental Breakfast – Interactive Speaker Program – Lunch

Mid Day Battlefield Tour (Minimal Walking – Approximately .9 mile) with authors and historians Chris Mackowski Ph.D. and Kris White

In the spring of 1863, as the Army of the Potomac braced for what would become the Chancellorsville Campaign, Salem Church and the fields west of Fredericksburg played a crucial yet underappreciated role. The main Union army, beset by uncertainty and relentless Confederate attacks, found itself struggling to coordinate its scattered corps. The VI Corps, under Major General John Sedgwick, was ordered to push through Fredericksburg and join the main force—an assignment that would lead them into their own private hell.

Sep 17 - Sep 27    UMW Theatre Presents: The 39 Steps
Patrick Barlow’s dazzling adaptation of Hitchcock’s iconic thriller tosses audiences headlong into a whirlwind of espionage, wit, and sheer theatrical invention energetically pulled off by just four fearless performers. When the thoroughly unsuspecting Richard Hannay is dragged into a deadly conspiracy, he must flee across Britain, dodging a gloriously exaggerated band of spies and relentless law enforcement at every turn. Quick-fire costume changes, razor-sharp dialogue, ingenious staging, and a surprise romance round out a production that crackles with intensity from the first scene to the last. The 39 Steps is a comic thrill ride you won’t want to miss.

Oct 3    Ghost Tour
Step into the shadows of Fredericksburg’s past on a 75-minute winter ghost tour led under the eerie glow of the moon. Bundle up as we explore the city’s most haunted streets.

The tour begins at Historic Tales & Tails Bookstore Café, where you can purchase a drink (or pick up a spooky book) before setting out into the night. Along the way, you’ll hear true stories drawn from eyewitness accounts, historic records, and generations of local lore.

This special winter walk includes a rare stop at the Masonic Cemetery, typically closed to the public, adding an extra layer of mystery to the evening.

Oct 16 - Oct 31    Halls of Hysteria

Enter If You Dare: Halls of Hysteria — Year 2

Halls of Hysteria is back for Year 2 at the Fredericksburg Convention Center — bigger, darker, and packed with even more scares for 2026.

Step inside a massive, fully indoor haunted trail where fear takes a different form around every corner. Halls of Hysteria isn’t built around one theme or one kind of scare — it throws you into a constantly changing nightmare filled with the things that keep you up at night.

One moment you may be walking through a fog-filled graveyard surrounded by the dead, and the next you’re trapped inside a twisted cornfield with scarecrows and creatures lurking between the stalks. Keep going and you could find yourself face-to-face with deranged clowns, possessed dolls, zombies, restless spirits, horror classics, sinister nuns, exorcist-inspired scenes, creatures in the darkness, and plenty more we’re not giving away.

And the scares don’t always stay inside the scenes.

You may be chased. You may be followed. Something may sneak up behind you when you least expect it. Our scare actors are there to keep you on edge from beginning to end — but actors will not touch guests.

With new scares, expanded scenes, and surprises waiting throughout the trail, Year 2 takes the hysteria even further.

Strongly recommended for ages 13+. Some scenes, effects, characters, and scares may be too intense for younger audiences.

Oct 23    Ghost Tour
Step into the shadows of Fredericksburg’s past on a 75-minute winter ghost tour led under the eerie glow of the moon. Bundle up as we explore the city’s most haunted streets.

The tour begins at Historic Tales & Tails Bookstore Café, where you can purchase a drink (or pick up a spooky book) before setting out into the night. Along the way, you’ll hear true stories drawn from eyewitness accounts, historic records, and generations of local lore. This isn’t a jump-scare tour—it’s a chance to connect with the lives (and afterlives) of those who shaped this city.

This special winter walk includes a rare stop at the Masonic Cemetery, typically closed to the public, adding an extra layer of mystery to the evening.

We’ll cover about 1 mile at a relaxed pace with frequent stops. Feel free to take photos—past guests have captured strange mists, glowing orbs, and unexplained figures.

Nov 1    Becoming A Hell of a Regiment: The Twentieth Maine at Fredericksburg in History and Memory

A Talk and Walking Tour with Jared Peatman

Though famous for its actions at Gettysburg, the Twentieth Maine’s first major battle – and the one that set it up to earn glory seven months later – was Fredericksburg.  Fifty years later, differing interpretations of that same battle turned former comrades Joshua Chamberlain and Ellis Spear into enemies, and provided much fodder for today’s anti-Chamberlain crowd.

Join us November 1, 2026, first at the CVBT office as Jared Peatman, author of the recently-released A Hell of a Regiment: To Gettysburg and Beyond with the Twentieth Maine, reveals the dynamics of the Twentieth Maine on the eve of the Battle of Fredericksburg, the impact of the great battle on the unit, and then the controversies that arose with Joshua Chamberlain’s January 1913 account “My Story of Fredericksburg.”  Then, we’ll pick up with the tour portion of the program and follow in the footsteps of the Twentieth Maine from December 13-16, 1862, as they attacked Marye’s Heights on December 13-14 before acting as part of the army’s rearguard on December 15-16.

Nov 28    Ghost Tour
Step into the shadows of Fredericksburg’s past on a 75-minute winter ghost tour led under the eerie glow of the moon. Bundle up as we explore the city’s most haunted streets.

The tour begins at Historic Tales & Tails Bookstore Café, where you can purchase a drink (or pick up a spooky book) before setting out into the night. Along the way, you’ll hear true stories drawn from eyewitness accounts, historic records, and generations of local lore. This isn’t a jump-scare tour—it’s a chance to connect with the lives (and afterlives) of those who shaped this city.

This special winter walk includes a rare stop at the Masonic Cemetery, typically closed to the public, adding an extra layer of mystery to the evening.

We’ll cover about 1 mile at a relaxed pace with frequent stops. Feel free to take photos—past guests have captured strange mists, glowing orbs, and unexplained figures.

Tour price: $27 per person

This award is named for Laurie A. Wideman, an exceptional woman in the community who was truly an enterprising woman.
