"Haunted" pub crawl
The folks running it were great, but some of the locations were a little meh in terms of being "haunted", more like haunted adjacent. Still a fairly good time with some interesting tidbits.

Menger Bar
Visit the oldest and most historical bar in Texas.
Southtown House of Spirits is a Victorian-era séance-themed bar located at 727 S. Alamo St. in San Antonio's historic Southtown district. Opened on Halloween 2024, the bar occupies a second-floor space adorned with vintage wooden furniture, dim lighting from pink bulbs, and electric candles, creating an intimate and eerie ambiance.
Hotel Havana, built in 1914, is a historic boutique hotel on San Antonio’s River Walk, known for its old-world charm and eerie ambiance. Legends whisper of ghostly guests lingering in the vintage-furnished halls, adding to its mystique. The hotel’s basement bar, once a speakeasy, now serves craft cocktails in a dimly lit, intimate setting—perfect for those seeking a haunt with their drink. Ocho, the on-site restaurant, offers a moody, candlelit atmosphere, blending Cuban and Texan influences. Whether for spirits in a glass or the spectral kind, Hotel Havana is a must-stop for history and hauntings. *Bar locations are subject to change*

Fun, not scary, no ghosts seen.
The bus tour haunted pub crawl was fun, not scary at all. We stopped at three bars. The first two were amazing. The third was too modern and lacked a haunted vibe. Our guide Lee was entertaining and made the tour worthwhile.

Excellent night out
This was a great tour, and Lexi was an excellent guide. Not only was her characterization and storytelling great, but when the tour ran into a snag---an extremely rude manager from a hotel whose bar this tour regularly frequents, with permission---she handled it with aplomb. My favorite part of the night was a conversation with her about our own real-life experiences, which is not something one usually gets to do during a group tour.

Great Tour
Had a wonderful time! Ghost tours are always fun way to see “the other side” of a city! Lady Lex and Robert took very good care of us and no spirits hitched a ride home.
