Haunted Pub Tour

Overview

Portland's longest running Ghost Tour with 300+ 5 star reviews. The city's wicked and wild history will blow you away!

On this spine-tingling walking tour, you will uncover Portland’s dark side. In the early 1900s, unsuspecting sailors were often ruthlessly abducted and wisked away through the notorious Shanghai Tunnels. We will entertain you with stories of how notorious local gangsters managed to kidnap thousands of people off the streets and why their ghosts still haunt the city today.

Our tour guides are local historians and ghost hunters who love to share their passion with you. We LIVE for seeing our guests eyes light up and hearing an audible gasp at the end of a spooky tale.

Stops include the famous merchant hotel, home to Nina Portland's most famous ghost. Friday and Saturday tours will include 6 local beer samples. Thursday and Sunday tours include two16 ounce beers. The tour is rated ‘mildly’ spooky and is a 50:50 mixture of wicked history and hauntings.

Being with my family while hearing ghost tales of the area and sharing samples of beer. Tour guid was hard to hear and was not to knowledgeable about the beer samples. Thought (because of add pictures) we were going under ground. But we made the most of it and talked with some really nice people in the toor.

Tour guide was a great guy, but so soft spoken for a group of 20 people in a not quite setting. He often started talking at the stops before we all arrived, so I missed multiple moments of information. The sites themselves were pretty underwhelming, nothing new you haven't seen walking around the Saturday market. He was a knowledgeable tour guide and our group enjoyed ourselves talking at the end of the tour. Glad I went to but was disappointed in the tour.
