About this experience
Join Phoenix Ghosts for our brand new late-night Ghost Hunt! This authentic ghost hunt invites you to explore the eerie streets and shadowy corners of Phoenix, revealing tales of the past that will send shivers down your spine.
As you traverse the haunted sites, your expert guide will equip you with state-of-the-art ghost-hunting tools such as an EMF detector, a spirit box, and more, ensuring you’re fully prepared to connect with the otherworldly. Gather outside St. Mary's Basilica, where your adventure begins--from there, you will explore other areas such as the Icehouse and Hanny's. Please note that this is a walking tour, and while you will explore some of the most haunted locations in Phoenix, you will not enter any privately-owned buildings or properties. However, you will be standing on haunted ground throughout the entirety of the hunt. Explore at your own risk, and get ready to immerse yourself in the spirits of the city!

Detailed itinerary
1
This beautiful and historic church is one of the oldest in the city. The one we see today was completed in 1914, and is home to Arizona’s largest stained-glass windows...and more than one spirit. Our tour begins here, with many more haunts to come!
2
As Hanny's has been home to many different businesses over the years, its history is a colorful one! Join your guide as you peer into the basement of this iconic building...you may be severely spooked by what you find.
3
The original Maricopa County Courthouse was built in 1884, but the one we see today was established in 1929. Though City Hall is no longer there, it still functions as a Superior Courthouse. While the building has seen some refurbishment, there are some spirits that remain. Use your equipment to pick up on ghostly activity in this area!
4
Before the magic of refrigeration, this historic building was a storage facility for huge blocks of ice. Since then, it has seen its fair share of tragedy--therefore, this area has some of the most haunted activity in the city. Explore at your own risk!
