Why take this tour?
If you really want to get the most of your evening, book the Historical Ghost Lantern Tour first and then select the add-on option for the Old Towne Ghost Tour. The Old Towne Ghost Tour will begin shortly after the ghost lantern tour concludes.
The Old Towne Ghost Tour takes guests farther afield from the downtown area where it is quieter, darker, and more chilling. Where the Historical Ghost Lantern concludes is where this tour begins after a short rest and break.
Our Traverse City walking ghost tour sweeps its guests up into fun ghost storytelling with some humor, chills, and spirit! A visceral, interactive experience for tour guests to learn the enchanting, enthralling, and spooky history of T.C.'s Old Towne's past.

Murder, hauntings, and of course your guide will let you choose which topics of interests you wish to explore! Because of the darker topics and location, this is for ages 21+

Expectation
Tours are presented with theatrical, storytelling by your experienced, local tour guide. 100% outdoor tour please dress for the weather. There are public restrooms located along the way when in the downtown area, but the tour does not have scheduled restroom stops. Please plan accordingly. Pictures are welcome but please no video of your tour guide. I get shy and self-conscious when on camera and much prefer to have conversations with my guests instead.
