Fun night with the crew

Mike obviously loves St. John’s and everything creepy and mysterious about its history…… throw in a few pints and you have a great night with your friends.

Creepy history, a guide who genuinely loves this city and a few pints along the way...really, what more do you need for a great night out? So glad we delivered. Thanks for sharing!

A great night!

My favourite go to when visiting a city is a haunted ghost walk, so when I found this one I was very excited. With the inclusion of a Pub Crawl it was a great night. Our guide, Mike, really knew his stuff and offered us plentiful facts, history and interesting tidbits about St Johns—while sharing some of his own personal experiences. The stops we made along the way, at three different pubs, really added some lovely atmosphere. Well done!

Operator response

Mike's personal experiences always add that extra layer of authenticity. So glad it lived up to your expectations. Thanks for the lovely review!

Mike was a great tour...

Mike was a great tour guide! He was super funny and we learned so much about the history of St John’s. It was nice to get to hear a local’s own encounters and thoughts on the haunted spots.

Operator response

Spooky Vibes and Frosty Pints- 10/10!

Truly cannot say enough good things about this tour. Mike not only knows his history but also how to tell a story, and how to add his own personality and experiences into them without taking away from the facts. The passion for the stories, the city and shining a light on otherwise unknown history is contagious, and it’s awesome to have people like Mike making creepy culture accessible in such a genuine and authentic way.

Operator response

So glad the creepy culture of St. John's found such an appreciative audience. Thanks for this wonderful review!

Loved it!

Absolutely fantastic experience. The stories were informed, authentic, genuinely creepy but never exploitative or sensationalized. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking to learn about the city and island in a new way or just looking for a fun evening and great stories.

Operator response

We want people to leave genuinely spooked AND a little wiser about St. John's. So happy it hit the mark for you. Come back anytime… if you dare.

I Ain't Scared of No Ghosts!

Mike was truly wonderful - not only was the tour informative and fun but you could 100% feel the passion Mike has for all things creepy, strange and unusual. He made my husband and I feel extremely welcome, and there is so much dark history to enjoy. All the pubs were great as well!

Operator response

We're so glad you and your husband felt welcome from the start. That passion for all things strange and unusual is very, very real with Mike!

Must do!

Even as a local, this tour was so fun! Mike’s so incredibly knowledgable about the history of the city, and I learned a bunch while popping between favourite local haunts (pun intended). Totally worth doing whether you’re visiting or a townie yourself!

Operator response

A local who learned something new is one of our favourite things to hear! Thanks for coming out with us.

St. John’s Spooky Side

Really fun way to see a different side of downtown St. John’s! In addition to local legends, Mike also shared firsthand experiences from his own ghost hunts in historic properties. A great mix of history and humour, with plenty of time to meet new friends at each pub stop.

Operator response

This tour is a fun one! We're glad you enjoyed it.
