Highly recommended - This walking tour was an unforgettable highlight of our trip. The stories were told with a wit that perfectly balanced genuine scares with the historical context of the city. Our guide, Thorn, was incredibly knowledgeable and engaging. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to learn the darker side of the city!

Great, 10/10 tour! - Thorn was the best! He was a great story teller and we learned so much. He spoke loudly and clearly, which was great given how loud the city is. We will definitely be recommending this tour to our friends and family.

Outstanding True Crime Tour — Drew Sets the Bar - This was hands-down one of the best walking tours I’ve ever taken, and that is entirely because of Drew. You can immediately tell he doesn’t just *recite* stories—he has deeply researched them. Every detail was accurate, thoughtfully sourced, and presented with care and integrity. In a city where true crime can easily slip into sensationalism, Drew handled each story with respect, depth, and historical context. That matters, and it showed. What truly sets Drew apart is how he performs the stories. His delivery was engaging without being theatrical for the sake of it. He told each case with genuine love and passion, making the history feel alive while honoring the real people involved. He kept the group fully engaged from start to finish—thorough, entertaining, and never rushed. Drew is the kind of guide who elevates the entire experience and reflects incredibly well on your company. He’s not just knowledgeable—he’s a storyteller, a historian, and a professional who clearly takes pride in what he does. A true gem, and absolutely someone you want representing your tours. Highly recommend—especially if you’re lucky enough to get Drew as your guide.
