Had an amazing time on this tour with our guide Josh. Learning the history and spooky happenings of places I pass on a daily basis was so cool. Josh made the past feel so relatable which made the supernatural feel even closer. I also learned so many fun anecdotes about different spots in the city I will be repeating to friends for a long time.
