Overview

Take a tour with a twist as you discover the dark history of San Francisco and use real paranormal detection equipment on a ghost hunting hike around Chinatown. 

You'll meet your guide amongst the eerie Victorian architecture of Jackson Square in the Historic District, get kitted out with your ghost hunting gear and learn about the different types of hauntings and ghosts you might encounter in the city. 

Then you'll head into the old neighbourhood and learn about the long lost ships and graves buried beneath the streets. Find out about the Great Earthquake of 1906 and the residual hauntings which still shake the area over a hundred years later.

Keeping an eye on your ghost meters you'll travel on into Chinatown to uncover the tragedies and true crime stories which have left mysterious energies still lingering today.

Don't worry though, your ghost hunt will end with a ceremony to honor the spirits who may have joined the group and make sure you head home without any ethereal extra guests!

We squeezed it into a packed weekend without stress. Audio / guide quality was stronger than usual, even though it was a busy day. (Would pair nicely with a light lunch nearby.)

A calm experience even on a crowded day. Crowds were manageable for the slot we picked, matching what friends told us—but better in person.

More impressive in person than the photos. Transitions between rooms or stops felt purposeful, would recommend budgeting a little buffer after for souvenirs.
