Description
Flagstaff’s original ghost tour since 2015. 1,000+ five-star reviews. Voted Best of Flagstaff 23, 24, 25. There’s a reason people keep coming back & a reason certain guests say ghosts followed them home. You’ll hear about the phantom bellboy at the Monte Vista Hotel, how John Weatherford came to Flagstaff to build his fortune, and the dark history of Wheeler Park that most Flagstaff residents don’t know. And then there’s the Marie Walkup case. We won’t spoil it here, but it’s the story that made Susan write a whole book. You'll also learn why Flagstaff's historic steam tunnels were sealed shut, and why no one's been truly underground since. We’re locally owned and operated by the people who wrote the books on this town’s dark side. Co-founder Susan Johnson is the author of Wicked Flagstaff, Haunted Flagstaff, and The Walkup Family Murders. Your attendance is gravely appreciated.

Itinerary
Your tour will begin between Flagstaff City Hall and Wheeler Park. You'll hear about the history of Flagstaff and get in the mood for some spooky stories.
This historic theatre is now a local hot spot for music and arts. But what was it before? Chickens aren't the only inhabitants of this local arts venue.
This hotel draws international visitors and is known for the infamous Zane Grey ballroom. With that much recognition, there are definitely some hauntings in the Weatherford halls.
One of the most haunted hotels in Arizona. Need we say more?
The heaviest story of the tour, a mother driven to madness takes the lives of her four children and herself one fateful summer night.
Doris-Harper White Community Playhouse
They say ghosts love a theatre however, there's one paranormal tenant that wants people to break more than a leg before a big show.
Flying books, books opening to page 666, and severed heads rolling in the stacks. Hear these stories and more.
We end our tour by regaling guests with stories of happier ghosts.

Freaky Foot Tour - Flagstaff
we had a wonderful tour with Steven (the heathen). It was a last minute decision as we had an extra day in Flagstaff and it was well worth it. Steven was knowledgeable and engaging. We thoroughly enjoyed hearing about the darker more sinister past of Flagstaff. Highly recommend joining a Freaky Foot Tour.

Wonderful tour with Steven
We joined the tour last minute as we had some extra time in Flagstaff. Stories were well told and intriguing. Steven (the heathen) was a wonderful guide who kept us entertained and engaged throughout. He is knowledgeable about the dark and sinister past of Flag. Would definitely recommend joining the Freaky Foot Tour when visiting.

Casper! Friendly ghost tour!
Needed more ghostly interactions/props/stooges with the hoteliers for example to give a little more realism and entertainment to the event.

Worth it!
This was a very affordable and informative experience. Our tour guide, Mike, was fluent with the history of Flagstaff and Route 66. The tour was about 75 minutes on the dot and worth every penny. Thanks again, Mike!
