Great tour guide, bad organization and communication.
The tour guide, Sky, was a passionate about haunting and storytelling and my family enjoyed the experience. Our experience finding the meeting place was terrible, the given location wasn’t correct and the person on the help chat was less then helpful, saying I was an hour late to the tour claiming it started an hour ago and she could not reach the tour guide and if I left I would be a now show. It was all very frustrating. But I can’t stress enough, Sky the tour guide made the experience worth while.

Historic night!
Alex was incredibly likable and knowledgeable about the history around cap hill! He kept the tour entertaining, amusing, and enlightening. It was definitely a good balance between spooky and humorous, and I learned a lot about cap hill that I would’ve never known. Will most definitely be coming back!

Ghosts in our own backyards!!
We live in Cap Hill, but had no clue about all the cool (spooky) history around us! Highly recommend this tour, even if you are a local. Our tour guide Alex was awesome - 10/10 night!

Two thumbs up
Chelsea was a great guide--she had a lot of fun (and spooky) stories, and incorporated some interesting Denver history. And, it was a great opportunity to explore this part of Denver and appreciate the architecture.

Family friendly history and ghost tour.
Chelsea was so awesome! There was a festival in the Park so the company called and arranged a new meeting spot outside of the park. She was very nice and knowledgeable. Our tour ended up just being myself my friend and her but she answered all our questions told us the history and her personal experience with the haunted places along the tour. My friend asked to make a pit stop for a restroom break and she stop for him to run in to a bar on our walk for a quick stop. She was so nice and friendly and I really enjoyed her tour! Even with the other big tours that kept running in to us it was still so personable and she still made sure we had a chance to take pictures or ask questions about the locations. I would absolutely recommend the tour for anyone interested in just denver history or ghost stories

Great Experience!
Can't say enough good things about this tour. The history was spot on, except I did not know all the spooky details! Alex was very friendly and spent extra time with my Grandson who was very interested in everything he had to say.

Mix of history and ghost stories
The tour guide was easy to find using the directions emailed to me. We started by the capitol building where the tour guide talked to us about some of the history of the city. It was great to learn history as well as ghost stories. My two boys enjoyed it as well. The tour guide was knowledgeable and answered any questions we asked.
