Highly recommend great ghost tour w Maddie!

crossdb, Sep 2025
Nice seeing campus in a new light! Loved Maddie’s UW history stories mixed with old and new ghost events. We enjoyed perfect weather and beautiful sunset views of the capitol, campus and Lake Mendota. It was easy walking including a jaunt up Bascom Hill. Maddie’s delightful storytelling makes for great memories. Thank you!
