The tour covers some of the places that I never expected to be mentioned in a tour like this. I expected the same old grand locations, and, sure, there is the occasional usual haunt mentioned, but I was surprised how many other places in the same area are truly fascinating and have really good stories. Trust me, for a history buff, this tour is PURE GOLD! I really enjoyed this tour.

DJ was our guide and he was amazing. What a talented storyteller! Very engaging. We had a smaller group and the pace was perfect. A great time was had by all. Highly recommend this tour.

Great experience. Our tour guide DJ was excellent in showing us the history of the hauntings and the glorius past

This night tour was informative and entertaining. Highly recommend.

We had so much fun getting a private tour of the city history.
