About this experience

A cemetery hunt is for the more adventurous adult who wants an experience rather than stories. This tour will take you on a ghost investigation through UTC's campus and Citizens Cemetery, utilizing equipment you've seen on television, such as ghost meters, temperature guns, Mel meters, laser grid lights, a parascope, and more, including the talking Ovilus X, which allows communication in real time. Don't forget your cameras- many guests have captured ghostly images including faces and full forms, and your guide will point out the best spots for photos.

Minimum age is 18 years old.
