We had Willliam Penn. He was really good and had lots of stories for us.

Patrick was great! He answered questions and took the time to really explain each location. I have taken this tour in the past also and it’s been great each time, but Patrick even had some extra stories I hadn’t heard on previous tours. He was super knowledgeable on the history of the area, as well as the hauntings. Highly recommended!

Tour was easy to book, and our tour guide was wonderful! Loved the fact that she is a local and goes to college there. She was careful to give us a heads up before gory details (we had our 9 year old with us). Pleasant (and a little spooky) experience. My 13 year old claimed to have felt something gently grasp her right shoulder as we were departing from the Randall House. A photo I took of my husband also came out distorted (his legs and head were missing from my photo) while he was standing in front of that very house.

Hello Veronica, we’re glad booking was easy and your whole family enjoyed the tour! It’s great to hear your local guide made the stories engaging while being mindful of your 9-year-old and giving you a heads-up before the gory details. And those unusual moments near the Randall House must have made the experience even more memorable! Thanks for sharing your family’s spooky adventure with us.

Overall the experience was great. She was very animated and distinguished between facts and wise tails. The historical parts were things you might not otherwise know. I learned a lot in a fun way.
