The tour was...

3.00The tour was informational and the tour guide was interested in her topic, but it was a large group so it was hard to get the feeling of any type of spookiness or sense of otherness around.
History part was fun. Ghost part not so much.

4.00We liked the history of the tour but the ghost stuff seemed forced. Not sure we would do a ghost tour again. But the tour guide was great.
THIS IS THE ONE TO BOOK

5.00Julianna was an incredible guide and story teller. Her enthusiasm for the paranormal+history was superb. Entertaining the entire time! This tour is perfect for those who are interested in both the darker side of history and things that go bump in the night. We would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone who is on the fence on who to choose.
Great tour!
