I would go again! - My sister and I took this tour and had so much fun! A great combination of history and ghost hunting. Walking around downtown gave us a great tour of the older buildings with a story to go with each. I would highly recommend this to anyone. Ryan was a great guide!

Definitely do this ghost tour! - We had such a great time! Our guide Ryan was awesome. He was very knowledgeable about the history of Phoenix and the ghosts that might be present in the locations we visited. There were all sorts of ghost finding gadgets to use and I got to use dowsing rods for the first time. I've always thought people manipulated those themselves but after using them and seeing them move on their own I'm more of a believer now. There seemed to be activity at each of the ghost hunting stops. The trip was quick paced but we always had enough time at each stop. It was fun to share personal ghost stories with the group. All in all, this was a very enjoyable tour and our guide Ryan was so much fun! Highly recommend Downtown Phoenix Screamix Ghost Tour!!

5 Stars – A Spine-Tingling, Unforgettable Night with Jimbo! - If you're looking for an unforgettable blend of spine-chilling ghost stories, rich local history, and laugh-out-loud entertainment, look no further than the Haunted History Tour with Jimbo in downtown Phoenix. From the moment the tour began, Jimbo's energy, wit, and encyclopedic knowledge of Phoenix’s haunted past had us completely captivated. Jimbo doesn’t just lead a tour — he brings history to life with theatrical storytelling, dramatic flair, and eerie detail that makes every alleyway and old brick building feel like a portal to another time. His tales are deeply researched, but delivered with such charisma that you forget you’re learning — until you realize you suddenly know way too much about 19th-century ghost sightings and forgotten cemeteries beneath the city streets. What makes Jimbo truly exceptional is his ability to read the crowd and keep everyone engaged — whether you’re a skeptic, a full-on believer, or just in it for a good time. Every stop had a perfectly timed mix of mystery, history, and just the right amount of creepy atmosphere. Plus, the hidden spots he takes you to? Absolutely chilling in the best way. This isn’t your average ghost tour — it’s a masterclass in haunted storytelling, delivered by someone who clearly loves Phoenix, respects its history, and knows how to entertain. Highly recommend for locals and visitors alike. Just be prepared to sleep with the lights on afterward!
