We walked around areas of San Diego and got to hear stories that are associated with the ghost sightings in the area. Dan did a great job!

No particular favorite part. Peggy, our tour guide was very informative at all the places we stopped at.

The tales behind the hauntings were far-fetched and not very credible. Dan was a good guide, but the stories we’re just not compelling enough and were inconsistent in parts. While it was nice to hear some of the stories of early San Diego and its roots (those were the believable ones), the actual haunting stories lacked a bit in terms of depth and cohesion. It seemed like many buildings were not in their original locations, which didn’t make much sense given the fact that these buildings were originally constructed with brick and mortar that you can’t really just tear down brick by brick and move somewhere else. Also, things like none of the multiple storage buildings started off with multiple stories, yet the hauntings are now said to be taking place in parts of the building that weren’t even there originally. Those kind of things. It was a fun walk during a busy night in the gaslamp and I commend Dan for his efforts, but it fell a little short for me.
