Thanks for the feedback! We try to dedicate a decent portion of our tour to focus on Robert and conducting a paranormal investigation, but we strive to provide a solid history of the fort to give our guests some context for the ghost stories tied to the building. Purchasing tickets to our tour also provides free admission to the fort during the daytime where you could take extra time to learn more. If you have any questions about the fort/tour feel free to shoot us a message!
