Fun little ghost tour

MichaelSean_M, Jul 2026

This was a lot of fun, with a nice narrator taking you through a coupl eof blocks of haunted history. My only issue is that the starting point, the bigfoot statuse is hard to see as it blends into the tree background that surrounds it. Hard, but not that difficult.

So much fun!

I loved that, while everything was in a short walking distance, it still took you through the heart of Jefferson and included a rich history of the city. My boyfriend and I loved it, and I would definitely recommend!

It was fun! But a lot of things were closed in a small town super early. But it was super fun and the mcgarittys food was amazing!

Very fun and educational as well

I loved this tour because I got to explore Jefferson and learn some history with a spooky twist. I went antique shopping and found some cute stuff moderately priced and got some yummy ice cream at the general store. It’s a fun place to visit and I highly recommend taking the ghost tour for a fun adventure to see everything not on YouTube.
