Not enough substance to make it worthwhile. The house has been renovated too much to appear realistic. Certainly not spooky in the least. Disappointed 😞

We had a great tour of the Whaley House with Gentleman Jack. While we did not encounter any spirits, the house’s historical background was a great introduction to the history of San Diego. The house is very well cared for and it was a delightful experience.

I legit want to ask Ophilia out just to hear the way they put history and lore in such a small area of time. I have been waiting so long to do this tour, and in my younger years I could not afford it. I spent the dollar and was given a grand show. Xoxoxoxo
