Best Haunted Walk I've Ever Been On - This was by the best haunted ghost walk I have been, and I have been on multiple across the country. Jen told very engaging, fascinating stories and is simply an incredible storyteller. The walk itself was very good with well chosen sites. She wasn't gimmicky it was just a rock solid tour that I could retake with friends in a second and not feel bored. Very well done!! Don't miss this one!
