Hands-On Regional Museum offers different exhibits throughout the year so there's always something for every interest.

Our area truly has much to offer the way of our heritage and culture. While we don't have time, or space enough to list them all another great addition to the above is Tipton-Haynes State Historic Site (Haunted) in Johnson City. A cabin was built here and occupied by Col. John Tipton, who is the 6th great uncle of Appalachian GhostWalks' Tour Director, Stacey Allen McGee. This historic site is featured along with our on-site tour entitled the "Historic Tipton-Haynes GhostWalk"...

Soutern Appalachian history goes back farther than some people used to think. Recent discoveries made while excavating have revealed fossils dating to between 4.5 and 7 million years ago. An impressive and rapidly increasing list of fossils include ancient rhinos, tapirs, turtles, alligators, short-faced bear, weasels, red panda, rodents, and others, plus fossilized plant remains. The Gray Fossil Site opens in June 2007 and as is the case with all of our "Spook and Save" partners, will offer discounts on admission to guests traveling Appalachian GhostWalks. Remember, you may combine any of our ghostly tours with your choice of the attractions listed on this page...
