About this experience

Join us for a spine-tingling, adults-only ghost tour where the spirits are restless and the stories are downright chilling.

We’ll dive into tales of demons, monsters, blood-soaked grounds, and even a centuries-old curse that still casts its shadow over the city. It’s a night of frightful fun, twisted history, and just enough paranormal to keep you looking over your shoulder.

Leave the little ones at home and meet us at Miller Park, where your ghostly guide will lead you through haunted hotspots like the newly restored Miller Plaza Pavilion, the famously eerie Read House Hotel, and the historic Mountain City Club—built in 1889 and steeped in secrets.

It’s spooky, it’s saucy, and it’s only for the brave. Are you in?
If you have 10 or more guests in one group, please get in touch with the private & group sales coordinator with Ghost City Tours.
