Step into the shadowy underbelly of San Diego’s Gaslamp District, where the city’s rowdy frontier and hushed prohibition days of the past collides with its glittering modern nightlife, and where more than a few restless spirits linger long after last call. On this 21+ Haunted Pub Crawl, you’ll raise a glass in some of the district’s most storied and spirited locations. Stop by the Montijo Building, once home to a furniture store with a chilling sideline in coffins and embalming. Pause outside The Fluxx Nightclub, where the music and lights conceal one of the Gaslamp’s darkest histories.
