Blending immersive storytelling with performance art, comedy, & occasional touches of satire or magic, the tour delivers a fun and unforgettable journey through Greenville’s haunted history. The experience was created by owner and paranormal educator Gabe Mathews, who served as lead investigator on Paranormal Exhibition on Amazon Prime.
