Loved it! I don’t believe in ghosts so I did this tour more for the historical information plus a general love of spooky vibes and I had a blast! My best advice would be to get there early to appreciate the Old Town Market and get food before you start the tour; it’s a great evening experience.

It wasn't quite what I expected, not spooky at all. The latterns were a fun touch. But it was a fun time!
