10/10 things to do that’s affordable - Elizabeth was great! Her history & story telling kept the trip alive & involved. Highly recommended! Only thing is, I wish they would allow you to add a tip on the end of your ticket purchase because not everyone carries cash anymore & tips aren’t given when they should be.

What a treat on Halloween! - We really enjoyed the ghost tour, particularly on Halloween night. Our guide was excellent, combining history with interesting ghost stories. The neighborhood is beautiful. Be sure and leave time for wine and food either before or after the tour at the lovely home , now restaurant & spa, where the tour originates.

The interpreter makes the experience! - We had a great time on the ghost tour with a group of other people who we did not know, but we met along the way. Elizabeth was our guide and interpreter and she couldn’t have been more entertaining and knowledgeable. We were able to see a lot of the 18th century Area and cemetery. The interpreter makes the Experience and Elizabeth delivered in every way.

Fun tour during Halloween - Elizabeth was amazing. Very theatrical. Good ghost stories and local lore. Downtown street noise was heavy and distracting but she was able to speak over it and keep the audiences attention until we got to quieter areas. Fun time during Halloween season.
