What To Expect

Washington Park

A once prosperous area prior to prohibition, this park and surrounding neighborhoods lived through the grim Great Depression, leading to countless graves of people buried beneath the surface. From devastating floods to outbreaks of disease, the site has seen its fair share of tragedy. Many report eerie encounters with the spirits that linger...

Taft's Ale House

Now known as Taft's Ale house, sits a historic monument to Cincinnati's past. It was once an old Church that had seen its share of destruction and decay. Some visitors and employees alike have felt the presence of what many believe to be a former pastor of the church in the 1800s. Hear chilling tales of what they encountered.

Wooden Nickel Antiques

Have you ever heard of cursed objects? Like a haunted doll, chair or even mirror? Wooden Nickel Antiques started over 40 years ago, collecting 100s of historic pieces, each with it's own story, an untold secret. Some customers report strange occurrences they witnessed after purchasing antiques still holding onto haunted energy.

Today, the weather in Cincinnati was cold and rainy. We went on a Tripadvisor tour in St. Louis with similar weather — and, it was unbearable (we left early). We thought that they would cancel this one! We texted them to say that we were not coming. Unfortunately, you have to ‘cancel 24 hrs in advance to get a refund’ ($62)!! Their cancellation policy sucks!

Reagan was a great guide and gave us, pently of entertainment. This is not your typical tour... You do get some history & ghosts but in a different, fun and sometimes scary way.

Booked this tour five days before, travel an hour to the city that it’s hosted in. One hour before we’re supposed to meet the tour, they cancelled via text with no real explanation. Would think twice before giving them my money again.
