Great tour with an excellent guide - I wasn't sure how creepy a haunted walking tour would be in the middle of a loud, crowded city but our guide, William, really made it interesting with his stories. We learned lots about the city's history and he was able to answer all of our question. We were visiting Austin but took the tour with a local and we all enjoyed it. We would recommend. Thank you William!

Awesome! - It's great to see lesser-known and unique parts of Austin! Will knows his ghosts, which is not a 'jump scare' experience; it is also suitable for older kids and teens.
