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.

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.

BeerQuest's haunted pub crawl is a great way to spend a fun evening out on the town. I've been in Portland for a few years now, but learned a lot of interesting facts and anecdotes about our city's history from our tour guide Tyler. Even if you don't like history, you will have fun as Tyler shares stories that are much more entertaining than your average history lesson! I think this is a great alternative to the typical nightlife opportunities that abound in Old Town (the same old bars and clubs you can go to any night of the week) and would highly recommend taking the tour!

I would highly recommend BeerQuest's Haunted Pub Crawl! It's a great way to see Portland whether you live here or are just visiting. The experience is perfect for couples or a group of friends. Tyler, our guide, was so knowledgable and takes you on a fun night of stories, history, and beer! I live in Portland, so I can't wait to keep signing up for tours when family or friends come to visit.

I had a great time last night on the haunted pub crawl! Me and a few friends went on the tour for our friends birthday and we all had a blast. Tyler, our guide, had great expertise in beer and was very knowledgeable of Portland's spooky history. I would recommend you take this tour, especially if you have friends from out of town visiting or if you yourself are from out of town.
