Nice seeing campus in a new light! Loved Maddie’s UW history stories mixed with old and new ghost events. We enjoyed perfect weather and beautiful sunset views of the capitol, campus and Lake Mendota. It was easy walking including a jaunt up Bascom Hill. Maddie’s delightful storytelling makes for great memories. Thank you!

This was not only lots of fun but we also learned many interesting stories about the history and past events at the university. Lisa (who had an excellent costume) was a fabulous, funny, and very knowledgeable guide. It is an easy walk through a beautiful part of the campus also, with plenty of "spooky" twists. Definitely recommend this for a great way to spend an evening.

Lisa was our guide. Not only did she dress the part but she knew her stuff. It was a lovely walk around UW Madison campus with some history mixed in with great ghost stories. Highly recommend this tour.
