5.00We have been on many ghost tours, some are just cookie cutter guides, Not this one. Stacey was not just going through the paces, she was the most interesting and entertaining guide we've ever had. Her stories were both historical and from her own experiences. She had us listening to every story and her own spin on things. 10 out of 10
Great experience

3.00Save your money for mini golf. Our guide was enthusiastic but it wasn’t what I was expecting, maybe it’s better for little kids rather than our tweens??
Too much talking not enough walking

1.00Waste of money the tour guide way too much talking not enough walking. Paid money to sit on a pier. First 40 mins in we only had sat at pier. We have been on others and got good history but this was just bad.
It was a blast!

5.00My husband and I had a great time! The guide was a great story teller and very knowledgeable about the area. It was nice how OBX provided a fan/bracelet at the start. The walking was fairly localized and many of the stops had a form of seating available.
