Seeing the speculated origins of the killers and their motives was creepy yet fascinating. I loved the spots we went to and the tour guide was funny and spooky, he really played into his role well and did a great job explaining each item and the history behind them.

This was a great tour with just the right amount of spooky and scary. All the serial killers were interesting and the cemetery was definitely creepy

Excellent tour. Ted is very knowledgeable of all things Philly. Great mix of history and macabre. We had a great time and will definitely be booking another tour in the future.
