I have been on ghost tours before that were very spooky and informational. This was like working with a two year old on her first excursion. Terrible. I left early cause I couldn’t take it. Others left early as well. The guide had a couple walk down a dark alley and we all hid. That may have been scary although I don’t think so for them. She did review one ghost for a half hour that actually made no sense at all. The only thing that was good about the tour was that they did give out audio so we could hear the guide but it wasn’t worth it. Worse tour I have ever had. Don’t waste your money. I went through Viator and thought someone may get back to me to at least apologize but they have not.Or guide was amazing and told stories that kept me up all night! From the minute he walked up to the meeting point, he was engaging and entertaining.
