What To Expect
1
Larkin House
Larkin House, built in the 1830s by Thomas Larkin, is one of Monterey’s oldest and most haunted landmarks. The spirit of Larkin’s wife is said to roam the halls, with visitors reporting cold spots and the sound of footsteps when no one is around. The house’s history as a social hub during California’s early days seems to have left a few guests behind.
2
The Monterey Hotel Spa
The Monterey Hotel, a historic boutique hotel, is known for its ghostly residents. Guests have reported strange occurrences, including the sound of footsteps in empty hallways and the sensation of being watched. The hotel’s Victorian charm is accompanied by eerie encounters that leave a lasting impression.

This tour was great and Luke was a fabulous story-teller. The only downside is that we weren’t able to go inside of any of the haunted locations. Other than that, it’s more of a historical tour with a side of ghost stories. If you’re into that kind of thing, it’s a great way to see Monterey and learn about its history. Highly recommend for couples looking to explore the city while learning about It’s history in a less traditional tour.

We are so thrilled to hear that you had a great time on Luke's tour! It's great to know that you enjoyed learning more about Monterey's history and had some fun along the way. We definitely understand wanting to explore the locations a bit more--per the info on our website, we are unfortunately unable to enter those privately owned buildings. However, we're glad to hear that Luke's storytelling made the history come to life for you anyway! Thank you for this feedback. We hope you join us on another tour with US Ghost Adventures in the next city you visit!
