Informative, spooky, and beyond interesting - We had a great time with Mike on this tour. It was our son’s first ghost tour and it had just enough spooky and interest to keep us talking our whole trip. A must if you are looking for a good ghost tour.

Creepy and historical - Just the right amount of creepy and historical to keep my kids interested. They even wanted to go find the haunted city jail the next day, which was mentioned in the tour but not visited. We were all a little spooked that night—a sign of an A+ ghost tour!
