Great Tour - I took my 13 year old who is into paranormal activity and she loved it! I'm not as into it and found it very informative and a great experience for us to share. The tour guide was wonderful and had a wealth of knowledge.

Interesting tour! - We had a great time on the tour. It was interesting and fun. It was a good way to see Asheville at night. Brian was knowledgeable and very willing to take questions from the kids in the group. I would highly recommend it if you have a couple of free hours in Asheville!

Led by the best Ghost Hunter/Conspiracy Theorist you’ll find! - Our guide was so funny and dressed 100% like a ghost hunter/conspiracy theorist. He did have a cigar going the entire time, which wasn’t ideal, but oh well. It was a lot of walking, but fast paced. I wish there was more to it (but I’d rather not change it than they just start making stuff up)

Great ghost tour! - Great tour in Asheville. Our guide Brian was very knowledgeable and shared great history with us on a freezing night with snow flurries. Small group but he kept us engaged and even walked us to our parking lot at the end of the tour. Thank you for a fun night.
