About this experience

Visit some of the Most Haunted Locations in Salt Lake City on this 1.5 Hour Tour!

Travel around to the locations of actual hauntings, hear the details of what happened and bring your camera to see if you can experience them yourself.

We will not merely take you on a history tour of the city but a fully interactive adventure where you can experience the most haunted places in town. We get off the bus at almost all the locations to get up close and personal. This will allow you to try some of the ghost hunting equipment provided and to take pictures.

If you’re aching to go inside the buildings and get more intimate, we also offer Paranormal Investigations where you spend the whole time inside a haunted building at night, alone, and in the dark!
