A Tour Of This Haunted Gulch In Wisconsin Is Not For The Faint Of Heart

One of the spookiest experiences in Wisconsin can be found in the Wisconsin Dells. The Ghost Boat Tour is an excursion that weaves nighttime landscapes with the eerie legends of the Dells. It’s a truly chilling experience, even before the boat anchors at Witches Gulch! The question: will you dare to walk down the dimly lit boardwalk deep into the shadowy gorge? Read on to decide.

Only climb aboard this boat if you’re ready for a spooky adventure. You’ll want to brace yourself for a journey that’s filled with legends, mysteries, and a few terrors.

It’s a seriously scary ride – the tour is not recommended for children under 10.

After darkness falls on the Wisconsin River, you'll embark on a voyage upriver on the river’s black waters.

An on-board storyteller will share the tale of Cold Water City, an old mining settlement that met a supernatural demise.

The boat navigates through a channel, passing between towering rocky walls and leading to a dimly lit landing.

There is an extensive walking portion on dimly lit paths that may be damp, so watch your step and hold onto the railings – scary fun is ahead.

The total walk covers roughly eight city blocks, round trip.

If you find the experience too intense, you can turn back at any time. But if you stay with it, you’ll be rewarded with plenty of chills and thrills.

The Ghost Boat Tour blurs the lines between the natural and the supernatural, and it’s a trip unlike any other.
