Description

Dare to explore the haunted heart of Chicago on this spine-chilling walking tour! Led by your local guide, you'll uncover the city’s grisly past and ghostly legends that still linger in the shadows.

Your eerie adventure begins at The Chicago Theater, where the tragic story of the Iroquois Theater Fire claimed 602 lives. Next, creep into the Alley of Death behind the James M. Nederlander Theater, where paranormal whispers are still heard. At the Chicago Cultural Center, learn about Frederick H. Hild, the ghostly librarian said to roam its halls.

Brave the grounds of Lincoln Park, where the bodies beneath your feet make it more graveyard than park. Wander through the Art Institute of Chicago, where over 300,000 items are rumored to be haunted. Then, steel your nerves for the Congress Plaza Hotel, one of America’s most haunted hotels and a chilling inspiration for Stephen King.

Wrap up your night at Exchequer Restaurant and Pub, where the ghost of Al Capone is said to still haunt Chicago’s streets, his spirit etched into the city's dark history.

Chicago’s ghosts are waiting... if you’re brave enough to meet them.
