The third stop takes you to a haunted tower and a nearby cemetery with fascinating local lore. The drive to your fourth stops ranges anywhere between 30-40 minutes (depending on where you want to go).

It's time to choose your own haunt — from paranormal streets to movie-famous spots, we’ve included a mix so you can follow your curiosity. Please note, one of the options on the fourth stop includes a stop that's also on our Local Markets trip.

Our haunted trips are all about the stories and the atmosphere. While you’ll visit real locations tied to eerie legends, many are best enjoyed from the outside — so bring your imagination! You’ll have a few short walks or hikes, plus several “drive-by” or photo-op stops where you’ll read the history in your booklet and picture the events for yourself.

Ghost sightings not guaranteed… but goosebumps possible.
