Overview
This is darker than our standard tour. Feel the presence of the pioneers and the town’s forefathers (and mothers!) as you walk the sidewalks of historic downtown. Chill to tales of ghostly spectors, murderous villains and past tragedies, all told by an eccentric and ethereal guide.
Flagstaff, Arizona was once a sleepy little railroad settlement at the base of Mount Humphries. It managed to survive and thrive and today is a town with ghosts, rather than a ghost town. Meet John Weatherford, eccentric builder of both the Orpheum Theatre and iconic Weatherford Hotel.
Smile at kindly Dr. Raymond, beloved town physician, who built his home and offices on Leroux St. The 1926 train depot and Hotel Monte Vista are not only of historic note–both buildings are known as supernatural hotspots. Shiver at the tragic story of Marie Walkup and her murdered children that occcured during the town’s 1937 hey-day. And shake your head at the 1988 trial in which the Skin Walker defense prevailed.
