American Ghost Walks
multi-city
Ghosts and fun bring your team closer together.
Guided experiences to multiple haunted locations. Your group will be treated to a ghostly experience during a 90-120 minute walking tour, 3-hour bus excursion, or pick a custom experience with food and alcohol options or a family-oriented experience as well.
Your team has been on outings before, but this time they've asked you to find something different and exciting for everybody.
When looking for specific venues to host your group, it can be quite challenging. And the last thing you want is another work event that feels more like a chore than a fun activity.
Your team doesn’t want to:
- Throw any more axes
- Go bowling again
- Sit bored at a large group dinner
Experience The City's Haunted Past with Your Entire Team
On this special evening, you and your team will have the perfect opportunity to get to know each other better! Your guide is well-versed in local culture, so you can expect a fun, engaging, and spooky event.
