The tour was extremely interesting. The tour guide, Bob, was genuinely engaged in the topic and had great character. He went above the call of duty by showing us the way to the shop and train station

Thank you so much. We're glad you enjoyed it. Bob is great. We call him Boo but mostly we call him Creepy Bob.

We took the 8pm Haunted Footsteps tour. Our guide was entertaining, however the tour was just about his personal ghost experiences and no documented ghost stories. The ghost experiences he shared with us were very far fetched which tainted the experience. He talked about how he had a lengthy conversation with a ghost, although i could see the humorous side to it, I still remained quite disappointed as it was not at all about documented ghost stories.

We are sorry that you were disappointed. This guide does mention some of his personal stories and we can verify their truth because we have seen some of it happen. But he also stops and tells the hauntings at Rockafellas, Ropes Mansion, Hamilton Hall and the Broad Street Cemetery. It is a mix of personal ghost stories and local hauntings.
