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

Wooden Nickel Antiques started over 40 years ago, collecting 100s of historic pieces, each with it's own story, an untold secret.

Shelby was cute but her stories never seemed truthful especially when she told us about the man in the window of Music Hall. She said that it happened on her night but didn't have a photo even though she said a customer took 1... Not believable
