Do you go inside any of the haunted buildings?

We focus on building exteriors and outdoor spaces. Businesses and public places are open for you to visit during regular business hours. Otherwise we respect the privacy of individuals and organizations and expect that our guests do the same.

Do guests really see ghosts on this tour?

We can never guarantee a supernatural encounter, but we will explain paranormal phenomena such as cold spots and residual hauntings. What we do guarantee: Our local connections and dedication to research means you'll get authentic accounts — in all their shocking detail.

Service animals are welcome. However, for liability issues, please leave your furry friends at home if you don’t require their assistance.

Is there a public bathroom on the tour?

Unfortunately not. All the park's bathrooms are closed by the tour start time. If you need to use the restroom we recommend going shortly before the beginning of the tour.

Is this ghost tour kid-appropriate?

While our tours do not contain anything too graphic or inappropriate, we find that kids that enjoy history have the best time. You know your children and that's left up to you. We do not recommend bringing children in strollers because sometimes that can be difficult with larger walking groups.

What if I'm late or cannot find my guide?

We do our best to answer calls and emails as promptly as they are received. Please make sure to leave a voicemail with the city and tour time. We try to accommodate travel and weather issues, but our public tours cannot wait for more than 10 minutes. Reschedules are available if the date you are interested in is not sold out.

What is your cancellation policy?

Because this is a limited capacity tour, all sales are final. If we cancel the tour because of weather or another event, we offer a full refund. We will do our best to accommodate rescheduling requests, but cannot guarantee changes because other tours and dates might be sold out.
