Haunted Pub Tour
Overview
On this spine-tingling walking tour, you will uncover Portland’s dark side. In the early 1900s, unsuspecting sailors were often ruthlessly abducted and wisked away through the notorious Shanghai Tunnels. We will entertain you with stories of how notorious local gangsters managed to kidnap thousands of people off the streets and why their ghosts still haunt the city today. Don’t worry, this tour is all above ground!
Our tour guides are local historians and ghost hunters who love to share their passion with you. We LIVE for seeing our guests eyes light up and hearing an audible gasp at the end of a spooky tale.
Stops include the famous merchant hotel, home to Nina Portland's most famous ghost. Tours will include 5 local beer samples. The tour is rated ‘mildly’ spooky and is a 50:50 mixture of wicked history and hauntings.

This was a great and fun way to get to know Portland! Tiffany, our guide, had the perfect blend of story telling, history, and spookiness. We appreciated how the tour kicks off with a flight of beer be what it loosened the group up. I’d highly recommend this tour.
