“This ghost tour was an amazing experience and very well worth it. There was plenty of time at each stop to truly learn the history and soak in the atmosphere. Getting to experience the Potter’s Wax Museum and the Old Jail was incredible and made the night feel immersive and fun. Our speaker, Selene, was knowledgeable, engaging, and kept the stories captivating throughout the tour. Slasher Steve was a great driver and added to the overall experience, and “inmate” Charlie was a fantastic touch that made the Old Jail visit unforgettable.
