What To Expect
1
Pack Square
An Asheville mayor killed himself in the Jackson building. How may people have jumped from the top? And why is there a bulls-eye on the sidewalk below? Learn about the ghoul of the old jail, Thomas Wolfe's ghost, Helen's Bridge, and more!
2
Grove Arcade
Hear the controversial story of the murder of Helen Clevenger in the Battery Park Hotel, and why a blood-red haze is said to appear around her murder-room window on the anniversary of the tragedy.
3
Basilica of Saint Lawrence
This building's architect is entombed in the wall of this church, and his apparition is seen roaming in the night, gazing, in awe, at the world-class dome he constructed with a secret method.
4
Thomas Wolfe Memorial
The spirits of the great author (Look Homeward, Angel), and his brother, roam the halls of this storied mansion. Thomas Wolfe even wrote about spirits before he died at age 37. Wait till you hear the full story!
5
Pritchard Park
This is where troops rallied before the "Battle of Asheville" in the Civil War. Southern ghosts still violently shove some people to the ground, and spectral drums are heard beating in the night.

Christian was a knowledgeable guide and you could tell he really enjoyed telling the stories. It was 2 hours of content with several locations to visit.

Christian was an awesome and well informed tour guide! We were a smaller group so we got the not safe for kids tour and it was totally freaky! It definitely stayed with me. It was more of a "there's a lot of murder in Asheville!" than a paranormal tour though! But I'm not complaining! There's also a lot of satanic worship and demons here! Loved it!

Tad was not just a tad bit of fun as his name suggests, but a spooky wealth of knowledge and history that I will never forget and will inevitably haunt my dreams for the rest of my life. My favorite part was when the Pink Lady tickled my feet in the "storage" room. I promise this was part of the trip. Don't patronize her though. She's a little moody from the unfortunate bell boy incident. I'm drunk and might have mixed the stories but omg tad is a gangsta. OG. Real talk.
