Spooky fun in Manhattan! Enjoyed it as a local - Fun local night in Manhattan. Decided to do something different then just the usual dinner and drinks. Learned alot about the history of the area. Our tour guide Marlina made everyone feel welcomed under the Washington Sq arch and led us on a fun,lively (considering the ghosts) tour. Would recommend the tour (even for natives) and would definitely recommend Marlina!

Great ghost tour experience - We had a great tour with Robert! He was really knowledgeable and told great stories. The tour lasted longer than expected because he wanted to fully explain every location (not a complaint but just be mindful!).

A perfect one-hour spooky adventure - Really fun tour! Our guide Marlina was highly engaging, humorous, and knowledgeable! The tour moved at a great pace and stopped at several cool spots around the Village! The small group size kept it perfectly intimate. A nice and festive way to end our October NYC visit!

Highly Recommend This Interesting Tour - I loved this tour!! I’ve lived in New York for the last 8 years, and I learned so much about the city that I love. My tour guide, Marlina, was incredibly knowledgeable and funny. She made the time go by quickly and the dark details very interesting. I highly recommend for anyone wanting to see a different side of NYC!

Good mix of history and anecdotal evidence! - A great little tour. We booked for Sunday so weren’t surprised that we were the only folks in attendance. The host ‘Marcus Carcass’ was great and explained that he’d maybe be a little less theatrical than usual with it just being the two of us and make it more conversational. It was a great tour and he had many facts and we also had some chats around the different phenomena and locations on the way round. Some of the stories were more ghost related than others but all interesting and there was one story involving the Jefferson Market Library which was a particular ‘spine tingler’!

I'm sure it's great, if they don't cancel on you last-minute... - They took payment for the tour and cancelled within an hour of it going ahead. We had already made our way to this part of town (which was really far from where we were staying) so were quite annoyed. They offered that we could go on a tour the next evening, so we agreed. The next day, again, we made our way to that area and had no contact or information from them. The tour never happened. They have since ignored all requests for a refund and have not got back in touch with me, apart from asking me to review the tour, which is an absolute joke. TripAdvisor are now having to deal with our refund themselves. Obviously the reviews are good, which is why we picked it, but it's not worth the risk as they really wasted our time and the whole experience was extremely irritating.
