Ana was AMAZING. Collectively my group tonight has done ~8 different tours in Seattle and Tacoma and Ana was by far the best. She was so knowledgeable and answered all gajillion of our questions. She kept our group so entertained we didn't even realize how cold we were or how much time had passed, we were a captive audience from start to finish Overall the ghost tour was a fantastic telling of a part of Tacoma history none of us had any clue about. We all had so much fun !!

It was a small group (4 hardy individuals) who braved the near-freezing temps for the Old Town Ghost Tour on January 24, 2026. Anna, our guide, was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, entertaining, and just made the whole frigid affair a genuine, if gelid, delight.

That was an incredible experience. I really loved the history and the storytelling and how much I learned. I really appreciated our tour guide and I really wish I had cash on me to give her a tip. I’m definitely bringing more friends and going on more tours.

My granddaughters were completely engaged in Chris’s presentation and tour. He is an amazing storyteller. The 13 year old is looking up all the virtual tours and presentations he has posted in the past. She is obsessed with learning more about the quirky and haunted side of Washington!

Chris’s use of humor eased some of the tension on our dark and stormy tour of Old Town. I love their use of archived images to further give merit to the tales told.

Chris was very knowledgeable and the dark, drizzly weather made it even more spooky. Will definitely book another Pretty Gritty ghost tour!
