Interesting and informative tour - I had a great time in this guided tour of the haunted locations in Raleigh downtown. I am always more interested in the history/story behind the locations than scares and I thought Raleigh has a wonderful history. The guide for the tour (Calum? - sorry!) was friendly, relaxed and with a lot of interesting information. I’d highly recommend if you are interested in these kind of tours and experience.
