About the Tour
On this ghoulish adventure you’ll see the old, haunted neighborhoods of Union Square, Nob Hill, the Barbary Coast and Chinatown stopping at 13 haunted locations.
As we explore, I’ll share with you the haunted locations and their spooky stories. You’ll learn about Chinatown’s dark past, the history of the 1906 earthquake, the gold rush era, the Jazz age and you’ll hear the tales of the ghosts that haunt San Francisco today.
It’s a tour of history, tragedy, mayhem and of course, ghosts.
The tour begins in Union Square next to the Weston Saint Francis and ends at that that Dragon Gate in Chinatown. The distance is 1.15 miles and takes 1 hour plus, depending on how much you stop.
This is not a tour for the faint of heart. The tour begins outside the Weston Saint Francis.
