      Lots of history of Avalon, some active EMF spots, headphones a great addition to not miss any of the stories if not in earshot of tour guide. John was great!

      Dead Yet Lively Energy

      Kat_G, Jun 2026
      Phil was a great guide—5th generation “Catalinine” and was very knowledgeable in the history and culture of the Island. We had lots of lively energy on the EMF Detection Monitors, and with the stories, you definitely feel spooked. There were only 4 of us on the tour, so it wasn’t crowded and you keep looking over your shoulder…for…well..you know…!!!

      Ghostly Tales of Avalon!

      Fun way to explore the haunted hot spots of Avalon! Our guide shared his knowledge & stories from the locals and encouraged our party of four to shate ours. Definitely got chills listening as we walked around and tried out EMF meters. Great evening, and we came back with cool stories to share with other travelers at our hotel. Definitely recommend! 👻💀👻

      A must see

      Jesse was awesome. She explained so much about the paranormal history of Catalina. She shared many stories of her experience with other tours.

      Interesting Night Walkabout!

      One of the best ghost tours we've had

      John was our guide and we commented that 1+ hours went quickly. Luckily we were the only ones on the tour which made it personal, it was like spending time with an old friend. We were able to share stories and experiences. We enjoyed the history of Avalon and the Island, learning many new things.

      Fun experience

      Jess was great, very knowledgeable and genuine. We had a couple of drunk folks on the tour that were pretty annoying, but that's not her fault.

      Do not book this tour

      Renee_H, Sep 2024
      Biggest waste of money and time ever for a tour. So boring that 6 of us out of 8 total left the tour early.

      Tour needs improvement

      Brian_V, Aug 2023
      The stories were great, but too many of them. Also, too many people on the tour and too much street activity (noise). Thus, minimal or no ghost detection

      Thank you for your review Brian, we are always looking for way to improve our guest experience.
